About 'Everything is Miscellaneous'
Business visionary and bestselling author David Weinberger charts how
as business, politics, science, and media move online, the rules of the
physical world - in which everything has a place - are upended.
In the
digital world, everything has its places, with transformative effects:
Information is now a social asset and should be made public, for anyone
to link, organize, and make more valuable; There's no such thing as
"too much" information. More information gives people the hooks to find
what they need; Messiness is a digital virtue, leading to new ideas,
efficiency, and social knowledge; Authorities are less important than
buddies.
Rather than relying on businesses or reviews for product
information, customers trust people like themselves.With the shift to
digital music standing as the model for the future in virtually every
industry, "Everything Is Miscellaneous" shows how anyone can reap
rewards from the rise of digital knowledge.
