Thanks for this juicy image, Nova. Too funny, I’d just asked Danah Boyd a couple days ago about emergent meta-consciousness in re: social networking:
>Earlier forms of interaction (and their enabling tools) between humans on-line were social networks, but narrow and fairly reactive in nature. More contemporary tools have been repurposed, but in something more than a reactive fashion; they are repurposed, gamed, to test the capabilities. Like toddlers testing the boundaries now that they can walk.
Is it possible, then, that the aggregate of on-line social networks are now experiencing the emergence of a form of meta-consciousness? Something more than infantile/reactive consciousness, more like toddler/naive consciousness? Can we make a prediction that on-line social networks may emerge in parallel with human consciousness?<

Nova Spivack: the future of the web

A few days ago, Nova posted a very interesting analysis of where we’ve come from and where we’re going in the world of social technology. Now, he has set out his vision of the Metaweb: ‘The Metaweb is emerging from
