  Mientras las noticias de Irán son transmitidas al mundo, Clay Shirky nos enseña como Facebook, Twitter y TXTs ayudan a los ciudadanos que viven en regímenes represivos a reportar noticias reales, eludiendo la censura (aunque brevemente). El fin del control de las noticias de arriba hacia abajo está cambiando la naturaleza de la política.

  • We saw some of the most imaginative use    of social media during the Obama campaign.
  • And I don't mean most imaginative use in politics --    I mean most imaginative use ever.
  • What matters here    isn't technical capital,    it's social capital.
  • The first one is the famous one, the printing press
  • two days ago, announced    that they were simply shutting down access to Twitter,    because there was no way to filter it other than that.
  • As recently at last decade,    most of the media that was available for public consumption    was produced by professionals.
  • the moment our historical generation is living through --    is the largest increase in expressive capability    in human history.
  • Every time a new consumer    joins this media landscape    a new producer joins as well,    because the same equipment --    phones, computers --    let you consume and produce
  • These tools don't get socially interesting    until they get technologically boring.    It isn't when the shiny new tools show up    that their uses start permeating society.    It's when everybody is able to take them for granted.
  • They had to turn the spigot entirely off.    Now these changes don't just affect people who want to censor messages.    They also affect people who want to send messages,
  • Those days are over, never to return.
  • The really crazy change is here:    it's the fact that they are no longer disconnected from each other,    the fact that former consumers are now producers,    the fact that the audience can talk directly to one another;    because there is a lot more amateurs than professionals,    and because the size of the network,    the complexity of the network is actually the square    of the number of participants,    meaning that the network, when it grows large,    grows very, very large.
  • And finally the Chinese cracked down.    That was enough of citizen media.
  • The Internet is the first medium in history    that has native support for groups    and conversation at the same time.
  • We are increasingly in a landscape where media is global,    social, ubiquitous and cheap.
  • This was an incredible, coordinated global response.
  • assume that media is produced by professionals,    it mostly comes in from the outside world,    it comes in relatively sparse chunks,    and it comes in relatively slowly.
  • media is increasingly less just a source of information,    and it is increasingly more a site of coordination,    because groups that see or hear or watch or listen to something    can now gather around and talk to each other as well.
  • And that is the kind of discipline    that it takes to make really mature use    of this media.
  • two-way communication,    conversational media: first the telegraph, then the telephone.
  • having to decide    whether to allow or shut down entire services,    because the transformation to amateur media    is so enormous that they can't deal with it any other way.
  • The audience can talk back.    And that's a little freaky. But you can get used to it after a while, as people do.
  • The last time China had a quake of that magnitude    it took them three months to admit that it had happened.
  • about 150 years ago,    there was a revolution in recorded media other than print:    first photos, then recorded sound,    then movies, all encoded onto physical objects.
  • China is probably the most successful    manager of Internet censorship in the world,    using something that is widely described as the Great Firewall of China
  • The question we all face now is,    "How can we make best use of this media?    Even though it means changing the way we've always done it."
  • about 100 years ago, the harnessing of electromagnetic spectrum    to send sound and images through the air -- radio and television.
  • He had said, in January, that he would not sign a bill    that granted telecom immunity for possibly warrantless spying    on American persons.
  • The BBC got their first wind of the Chinese quake from Twitter.    Twitter announced the existence of the quake    several minutes before the US Geological Survey    had anything up online for anybody to read.
  • It is more and more often    a way of creating an environment for convening    and supporting groups.
  • there is a proverb in China, repeat a lie enough times and it will be believed

  As I reread Gladwell's piece I found that I may garner more information knowing more about one of the key people Gladwell addresses, Clay Shirkey. I want to know more about the man Gladwell spends the most time and effort on in his article. From that point I investigated a TED talk Mr. Shirkey gave in 2009, discussing social media (hmm, seems relevent!). The point i'd like to highlight from the video is is 5:50 to about 10:30. Here Shirkey discusses an example of social media bringing unprecedented social change in a terribly repressed nation - China.

Public Stiky Notes

• 
  Tom Krieglstein on 2009-08-01
  - It's not Technical Capital, It's Social capital that matters
  
  - These tools don't get socially interesting until they get technically boring.
  
  - This generation is the largest increase in expressive capability in human history
  
  - Media Revolutions > Printing Press(1400), telegraph/telephone(200 yrs ago). Recorded Media(150yrs ago), Radio(TV) (100yrs)
  
  - The media that's good at creating groups is no good at creating conversations, and the media that's good at creating convos is not good at creating groups. (1 to many or many to 1)
  
  - Internet media is first that integrates these two.
  
  - As stuff gets digitized all media is carried via internet
  
  - BBC got first announcement of China 7.2 quake via Twitter before Meteorology Society.
  
  - Last 7+ quake it took China 3 months to admit it even happened
  
  - Ex of China fighting to contain citizen journalism
  
  - China shut off flow to Twitter for Tiananmen Square reunion because they couldn't filter the flow.
  
  - The audience can talk back. They are full participates.
  
  - Great graph of idea of "rally your ppl to each other around your brand, not rally ppl to your brand"
  
  - Obama example of FISA (convine supports, not control)
  
  - Media is less about crafting a single message
