Mark Frauenfelder: Mob Rule
Mark Frauenfelder in TheFeature: “If you want to find out how emerging technologies are going to affect society and individuals, ask Howard Rheingold. [–––] Howard’s latest feat of high-tech prognostication, Smart Mobs, will be published in October [...]. I recently called Howard to ask him about his book. Despite the best efforts of his 802.11b network to disconnect our phone call, I managed to learn what smart mobs are and what they mean for both extraterrestrial life searchers and for fishermen off the coast of Africa.” (Via Mark Frauenfelder.)
