This Week On TechCrunch: The seventeen best ‘best-of… …of the year’ (and the decade) lists, of the week
Apparently in the days between Christmas and New Year, the world stops demanding actual journalism – or writing. There’s a reason why we had more stories on Techmeme’s list of the ‘ ten objectively biggest tech stories of 2009 ‘ than any other single news source, and that’s because – even in a week when no one is reading anything we write – we retain our passion for real journalism and impassioned campaigning , along with our hatred of lazy, crowd-pleasing bullshit. What is it about the dawn of a new year – and, in this case, a new decade – that inspires such an interminable parade of lists?

Larry Lessig: Beyond Transparency, and Net Triumphalism
As regimes have censored the Net in ways the Net has not routed around, as Albert-Laszlo Barabasi and then Clay Shirky showed us that the Net tends towards the old patterns of unequal influence, as the mere networked presence of Howard Dean supporters failed to end GW Bush’s reign of error, naive Internet Triumphalism has become unsupportable. As Aaron Swartz says, we need narrative journalism as well as the Web. Plenty is being written already trying to parse, understand, and come to terms with Larry Lessig’s article “ Against Transparency ” in the New Republic.

  • [berkman] Clay Shirky on the future of news
    Clay Shirky is giving a lunchtime talk at the Shorenstein Center, which may be a joint event with the Berkman Center.

Getting things wrong.

  • Clay Shirky in London: Group action just got easier

  • The Sky is Falling!
    We've had Michael Hirschorn's Atlantic Monthly piece forecasting the demise of The New York Times by May, Jack Shafer weighs in at Slate , James Surowiecki in The New Yorker , Clay Shirky raises some very interesting points, and today Fred Wilson joins the chorus with My Focus Group of One . A But take a 10,000 foot view--we're just in the infancy of this wonderful melded form of journalism and media, where each form of broadcast borrows from the other as a method of storytelling. It's been a busy week for the "death of newspapers" camp. A

  • Old Growth Media, The Aftermath
    The volume of response also underscores the value of releasing an essay version of a speech more or less simultaneously with the speech itself -- a trick I learned from my old friend Clay Shirky, who, entirely by coincidence, posted his own essay on the newspaper crisis the day I gave my speech in Austin. You'll see Clay's excellent essay mentioned in many of the links below; if you haven't had a chance to read it, be sure to check it out. I'd been meaning to do a follow-up post collecting the responses to my SXSW speech on "Old Growth Media And The Future of News," but I kept putting it off because new articles and posts continued to roll in, and stitching them all together started to seem a little daunting.
