The Culture of Participation
Erick Schonfeld, editor-at-large for Business 2.0 writes:
Blogs, wikis, Flickr, Zazzle. These are not the names of strange aliens from other planets. They are the expressions of an emerging culture right here on Earth. It’s a culture in which every citizen is a publisher, photographer, programmer, or product designer. It’s a culture that's blurring the lines between amateur and professional, consumer and creator. It’s the culture of participation.
I love that thought. The culture of participation. This is pretty much exactly what we had in mind when we started PABD. I've just fired off an email to Erick, asking him for an interview. I'll post an update as soon as I get an answer.
Update on this: Erick has agreed to an interview. We'll be talking on Wednesday evening.
