A quick view of e-consultation
I just came across a very succinct take on the advantages of online consultation. It's from a 2003 paper Beyond Civil Society: Public Engagement Alternatives for Canadian Trade Policy (PDF) by Josh Lerner. Here's how he summarizes the case for e-consultation: Online...
Is podcasting the death of discourse?
Tod Maffin sees podcasting as a way of letting people create “vertical” audio feeds; instead of listening to general interest radio shows like As It Happens, listeners can create their own personal streams of audio, based on their own particular interests.

From diatribe to dialogue
It's been an exciting 48 hours here on alexandrasamuel.com. It's been swell hearing from all the folks who were shocked, outraged or otherwise engaged by my digressions (in November, and this week) on the subject of Condoleezza Rice's political science career, but I...

Lisa Barone made my day with an extraordinary blog post, Back When Social Media Was Human… She jumped off from the piece I post this week on the Harvard Business Review site, on The Devolving Meaning of Social Media, and pointed to one particular quote that she...
