Debate: The Internet and Democracy
Miller Center of Public Affairs

It Is Easy to Ignore Facts Online

Authority Can Exist on the Internet
No Expertise on Wikipedia or Expertise No Curators
Free Information has greater transparancy

IN CONTRAST TO Rushkoff's new book:

Program or be Programmed

Ten Commands for a Digital Age
Douglas Rushkoff

The Commands are not commandments, meant as orders from God to a population, but rather ways of taking command of any of the biases of digital media. The way to take command of digital media’s asynchronous bias, for example, is not to be “always on.”
Here are the ten from the book.


I. TIME

    Do Not Be Always On
II. PLACE
    Live in Person
III. CHOICE
    You May Always Choose None of the Above
IV. COMPLEXITY
    You Are Never Completely Right
V. SCALE
   One Size Does Not Fit All
VI. IDENTITY
    Be Yourself
VII. SOCIAL
    Do Not Sell Your Friends
VIII. FACT
    Tell the Truth
IX. OPENNESS
    Share, Don’t Steal
X. PURPOSE
    Program or Be Programmed 

1. MAKE SURE YOU ARE CAUGHT UP ON ALL YOUR BLOG POSTINGS
2. THINK ABOUT THE  FORA.TV DEBATE AND CONSIDER WHAT "SIDE" YOU IDENTIFY MOST WITH (KEEN'S OR RUSHKOFF')
