THE INFORMATION IN EMPTY BOX
Joi Ito suggests that the concept of social networking (better known as social networks) is crucial to what he calls "emerging democracy".
The Social Network Analysis is no longer baby and can afford illustrious signatures: Laumann, Wellman and Berkowitz. From Georg Simmel to the array of contemporary Stanley Wasserman and Katherine Faust, discuss all of the network, compare, propose theories, models, detailed analysis of the phenomenon and publish books and manuals such as peas, Scott, I asked, Corbetta, Memoli, Borland, Sciolla, Vargas, Salvini, Cordez, Corbo, perhaps, Carrington and many others.
course who does not know a single sentence written by any of these gentlemen can safely confess to not feel the least uncomfortable and less guilty. What can I say, even the personal experience of Facebook, with a hundred "friends" from 18 years old, was particularly unfortunate, yet many among them are university graduates and professionals of different cultures. That's right, I have friends mediocre (do not think so at all) if I find on the home page: I'm happy today won the milan - Ugh another day of rain - you have an invitation to join the group: making love is good - Baglioni video: big love - I'm tired now and go to sleep.
The "comments" that are read are no different: hi hi hi hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ... I like your picture.
not believe we need to bother sociologists and analysts, talking about piddling, to explain the widespread phenomenon of social forum, or to analyze the Content of each home page. To be honest
instill say that someone among my "friends" on Facebook, also talks about politics (the government's actions and fraud laws) or social (for or against immigration), but these arguments do not flare up hearts. Participation in what others write is small and in many cases close to zero. Those who publish a lot and have many friends, never read the comments of others to these publications, much less what others write, I can not say I have 150 friends and I have not the time to read what they publish. I think there are many analogies between the behavior to the social forum members and readers of books; was told that the Italians love to write more than reading, does this mean that we are so cultured and arrogant enough to refuse to interest the opinions of others?
Surely the mistake is mine, I'm too serious, the social forum will serve to make life lighter, download the nerves with arguments deliberately futile, for the effort, there are other places.
I wonder what places? social card, workplace, or the right to stage the disciplines of music? the great Totò would have said, but do me a favor?!
Social networks have been defined: containers of modern mass communication, I find it more appropriate to define them: communication with the box empty containers.
