I like Amy's OPML site too. Scott Karp, Publishing 2.0: "The problem, as many people have stated many times, is that the more everyone participates in content creation and content interaction, the harder it is to navigate the sea of information to find what’s useful." Scott links to Matt McAlister on the next generation PageRank: "The hyperlink was a vote in the search-driven Internet. Now I’m dependent on a new currency - human action. The click is much more potent than the existence of a link. Even more potent than clicks are tags, ratings, comments and emailed URLs." But Scott says you can't just use any old human action to measure the value of content, because some people are smarter than others. I agree. One reason why I read The New Yorker and The Economist is because their editors know more than I do about what's interesting and important. How do we achieve intelligent filtering and editing when anyone, even the dumbest, can create content? I think we need a mix of human and computer filtering. |
