We All Live In Public Now. Get Used To It.
Stowe Boyd, along with others before him , calls this new state of exposure “publicy” (as opposed to privacy or secrecy). Boyd points out:
Secrets can be shared, and thus become “social objects that link those sharing the secrets together, and excluding others,” writes Boyd. As the Web becomes more social, privacy becomes harder and harder to come by. People are over-sharing on Facebook and Twitter, broadcasting their whereabouts every ten steps on Foursquare and Gowalla, and uploading photos and videos of their most private moments

Dear DoD, the Web Itself is Social
military is strongly considering a near-total ban on Twitter, Facebook, and all other social networking sites throughout the Department of Defense." According to Wired, the DoD believes that social networks, "make it way too easy for people with bad intentions to push malicious code to unsuspecting users."
While it would be possible for the DoD to block specific social networks by denying troops access to domains such as A few weeks ago, Noah Shachtman of Wired's Danger Room blog wrote about how the, "U.S. In April of this year, Mark Drapeau and Linton Wells II (previously

Should Journalists Be On Twitter? Three Quarters Of NYTimes Readers Don’t Think So.
Intrigued by this tweet from writer and consultant Stowe Boyd , I registered for the New York Times’ Insight Lab , an online community / focus group made up of Times readers interested in providing the media company with direct feedback.
In my mind, journalists are free to join any social networking site they want as long as they conduct themselves online the way they’re supposed to behave in meat space e.g. Apparently, the New York Times is still unsure whether its reporters should be allowed to Tweet or not. The homepage features a quick poll asking members

Will Air France-KLM’s Social Network Bluenity Fly? I Like Dopplr Better.
Airline group Air France-KLM , formed after the merger of Société Air France and the Royal Dutch Airlines and currently the largest airline company in the world in terms of operating revenues, has recently launched a social network for travelers called Bluenity to connect its +75 million customers when traveling (presumably so that they can meet up with strangers).
An airline moving into social networking is interesting, so we decided to take a look and see how it compares to internet startups who are looking to monetize social platforms catered to travelers. Unfortunately, in this case, it turns out to be not much more than a marketing exercise.

Social Media Goes Mainstream
Further, I would add to this that social media platforms tend to work best in networked environments , particularly on the Web, but also behind firewalls though to a lesser degree. Why is the networked aspect so important? Primarily because it's a powerful democratizing force due to its pervasive, low cost nature; anyone can get in the conversation with only a small investment of their While some will dispute what mainstream is defined as exactly -- with my own personal favorite being when my grandparents and their grandchildren both are doing whatever is under discussion -- the rise of consumer-powered media platforms has all the hallmarks of being something that's not only here to stay, but something that's increasingly pushing everything else off the stage.

Also see great coverage by Stowe Boyd , Richard MacManus , and I hate to say it but ValleyWag, who has relentlessly live blogged the conference.

RT: @Microsyntax Sets Out To Make Sense Of #twittergrammar
To make sense of them, and develop new ones, Stowe Boyd is launching Microsyntax.org tomorrow. Crunch Network : CrunchBoard because it’s time for you to find a new Job2.0
...Tags: One of the side effects of Twitter’s 140-character limitation is that users are coming up with their own microsyntax and abbreviated Twitter grammar to make their Tweets more expressive. If your are merely retweeting someone else’s tweet, for example, you acknowledge that by placing a “RT” at the beginning

Full Disclosure: Sponsored Conversations on Twitter Raise Concerns, Prompt Standards
With Izea’s impending announcement of a new pay-per-tweet network, combined with existing ad networks and services such as TweetROI, Twittad, and Magpie, the FTC will be forced to pay attention to the paid endorsements in one of Social Media’s most promising and also elusive networks.
They increase awareness, expand networks, drive sales, build communities, promote causes, raise money and awareness, and push traffic.
In light of the FTC’s recent scrutiny of Social Media practices and the activity that connects brands to influencers and ultimately consumers, we will soon see guidelines and corresponding penalties to serve as governance for future engagement.
