Learning doesn’t happen from failure itself but rather from analysing the failure, making a change, and then trying again. Over time this gives you a deep understanding of the problem domain. – Michael Hunter – Fail Fast 2005http://blogs.msdn.com/b/michael/archive/2005/08/17/failfast.aspx

Making the impossible, possible.

Nic Hodges

Failing often, failing fast.

Social media does not mean just facebook.

Social means connection.

Mirroring our online and offline connections.

Out of social networks came the WWW. (IRC, ICQ, BBS boards)

Online projection of our offline self.

Social media returning to a collective mindset.

Things that were impossible that are becoming possible.

Social creation platforms: Wikipedia, soundcloud, quora

Social curation: Pinterest, tumblr, svpply

Social funding: Kickstarter, pozible,bandcamp

Social Data: data.gov.au, kaggle (making data science a sport), digital public library of americ, havard library motivation lab.

A powerful and important trend.

Issues: Authenticity, too much information, sea of content, rights of use, trust, privacy.
