Daily updates on what I’m reading. Links with my notes. I also just tweet links and things that interest me @dina
- Digital education resource and library for researchers and students – Cyborg Anthropology – Cool collection of very useful links and resources for understanding the effects of objects and technology on humans and culture. . CLIP – Introduction – "…..Cyborg Anthropology takes the view that most of modern human life is a product of both human and non-human objects. People are surrounded by built objects and networks. So profoundly are humans altering their biological and physical landscapes that some have openly suggested that the proper object of anthropological study should be cyborgs rather than humans, for, as Donna Haraway says, "we are all cyborgs now". How we interact with machines and technology in many ways defines who we are. Cyborg Anthropology is a framework for understanding the effects of objects and technology on humans and culture. This site is designed to be a resource for those tools."
- The 2010 Social Business Landscape « Dachis Group Collaboratory | by @dhinchcliffe – Well worth a careful read if you're a social media strategist. CLIP: "To help with keeping up with the fast moving pace of Social Business, we’ve created a useful new model aimed at helping keep track of the major moving parts of Social Business today. We define Social Business here as the distinct process of applying social media to meet business objectives.The Social Business Power Map, presented above, is an attempt to identify the major social media trends, how they can be mapped generally along consumer/enterprise axes, and where they are in terms of their overall maturity level today. Note that many of the aspects of social media in the consumer Web side is also heavily used in the enterprise side, while the reverse is generally not the case. This map is as exhaustive as space allows but inevitably some items had to be omitted. Any all such omissions are my fault alone. The items on this Power Map are rated on the following scale" Buzz | Experimentation|Adoption|Maturity……."
