Things We Learned From The Virtual Revolution • WWW was given away for free • From the start the Internet has been driven by people with a sense of personal freedom • 130 Million Blogs - 90% Dormant – Lots of Conversation but no one is listening. • The lack of online regulation means that those who can shout the loudest get the most space and attention (eg. Google Wins) • 1 search engine, 1 social networking website, 1 store • Not a great leveller at all • Not actually free at all instead run by an elite. (Government/Corporate Control) • Hope in Endless Reinvention (Revolution and Counter Revolution) Task 1 • Write up a new page inside “Virtual Revolution” part of the wiki about your topic – Provide Context to the facts you learned from watching (Do a little bit of research) – Add links/images/videos/w2g’s – MAX 300 words
