"And it's easy to deride this sort of thing as self-absorbed publishing―why would anyone put out such drivel in public. It's simple. They're not talking to you.“ ―Clay Shirky

Thesis 7Hyperlinks subvert hierarchy

Thesis 11People in networked markets

have figured out that they get far better information and support

from one another than from vendors.

Thesis 17Companies that assume online markets are the same markets

that used to watch their ads on television are kidding themselves.

Thesis 41Companies make a religion of security, but this is largely a red herring. Most are protecting less

against competitors than against their own market and workforce.

Thesis 9These networked conversations

are enabling powerful new forms of social organization and

knowledge exchange to emerge.

Thesis 12There are no secrets. The networked

market knows more than companies do about their own

products. And whether the news is good or bad, they tell everyone.

Thesis 50Today, the org chart is hyperlinked,

not hierarchical. Respect for hands-on knowledge wins over respect for abstract authority.

The web is ubiquitous.

Information is everywhere.

How does librarianship change in the next 10 years?

How are our customers changing?

How are the things we love changing?
