Interesting stuff I saw online, Mar. 21 to Mar. 24
Here’s some of the stuff I thought was interesting while stomping through the Internet from Mar. 21 through Mar. 24:
- Clive Thompson on the Taming of Comment Trolls – A couple of the comments on this story might be more interesting than the item itself: "The challenge Obama faces in allowing conversation at the digital White House is obvious: trolls. Discussion-thread veterans will tell you that politics attracts more vicious, raging, insult-hurling trolls than almost any other topic."
- Economist Blames Twitter for Down Economy – Professor Martin Schmeldon of Harvard Business School recently released research findings that suggest excessive Twitter use may have caused the current economic downturn.
- The rise and fall of social media (according to mainstream media reportage) | higher ed marketing – The seven phases of mainstream media coverage of social media, illustrated with a chart.
- Xark!: 2020 vision: What's next for news – Wow. An incredibly comprehensive outline for trends and ideas to look out for in the next generation of news. A reading assignment, but worth a look.
