Plans are for Dem and GOP online debates. Is this the next step in connecting politics to real people? Add this to:
- MySpace is holding a mock election in January
- Obama, Clinton, and Big Brother (the Orwellian one) have surfaced significantly in YouTube,
- Edwards hired bloggers – fired bloggers – did the Second Life thing – experienced the Second Life vandalism thing
- Rudy can be found in drag on several photo sharing sites
- and on and on…
and it sure seems like the trend is towards participation. This was somewhat the theme of my last post about wikis which resulted in a very reasonable comment/question.. “so what”?
The comment correctly points out that bad behavior will have consequences within a business – regardless of technology.
I agree. I still think the is something to think about here. My expectations for Internet content is that I never assume it has been vetted much (or at all). My expectations for internal content is vetting was a core element in its creation. These are different frames of reference… frames inching towards each other. A change that matters.
At least I think so 🙂
