Interesting Time magazine edition

November 17, 2005 sonjab Future Trends, General, Media tidbits No Comments

Time logo I just received my copy of the 14 November 2005 edition of Time magazine, and I must say it is one of the most interesting editions I’ve seen in a while. The theme is ‘What’s next’ and it contains several interesting articles concerning the future of the web and the increasing importance of being connected (there are some cool gadgets as well).

I especially liked ‘Place your bets’ on page 48 which is essentially about the Wisdom of Crowds as well as ‘Messengers of Cool’ on page 56 which is about a network of international trend spotters.

Africa’s Gift to Silicon Valley: How to Track a Crisis

A report under this title appeared in the New York Times on 12 March 2010. It’s a great example of a few things, but especially of the power of social media, and the fact that innovation (and competition) can come from anywhere these days.

Twitter 10 Billion – quality not quantity

In the last few hours the 10 billionth tweet was tweeted on Twitter. As one would imagine there was all kinds of hype and excitement, as Tweeps with the necesary skills attempted to predict the time it would happen, and I imagine even be ‘the one’?
My last tweet was 9999989724. Wild. Will be at 10 [...]
