Transparency, Social Media and Cultural Patterns Josef Ohlsson Collentine
When two broadcasters on Twitter or some other social media connect in the common area and create a discussion is when the magic happens. This is what social media is all about, connecting with each other and talking!...
I followed a debate over Bambuser about School 2.0 at Almedalen (a camp/convention for Swedish politics). Using Bambuser was a nice touch to such a debate and the online viewers were at the start included but later on forgotten but we had our own good chat in our channel.

The main thing they seemed to want to change in school 2.0 was a use of social media but unfortunately they missed the debate over what it would be used for. This miss is something I've noticed a lot lately, much discussio...
Found a great manifesto expressing how I feel towards the internet.

Social Media is relatively new for most people and many are still exploring the possibilities and uses of it. One of the things that happen with social media is that we become more transparent, we share more of our self to more people then we normally do. This transparency is good in some ways and less good in some.
There's been several stories of sharing too much information on social media. One example is the case where a British women forgot she had befriended her boss on Facebook.
Another example is the recent case of a Swedish guy who published a picture of himself where he wore...
