“Facebook is the living dead: the most popular, least relevant social network where teenagers and adults alike gather out of fear of missing out on things that don’t even make them happy.”

- Amanda Hess, Teenagers Hate Facebook, but They’re Not Logging Off

Hess cites new Pew Study, Teens, Social Media, and Privacy by Mary Madden, Amanda Lenhart, Sandra Cortesi, Urs Gasser, Maeve Duggan, Aaron Smith. Facebook has become a social obligation, and has been colonized by disapproving, ever vigilant adults.

6 Ways To Create A Culture Of Innovation

6 Ways To Create A Culture Of Innovation:

dhcontentsummit:

Every organization is designed to get the results it gets. Poor performance comes from a poorly designed organization. Superior results emerge when strategies, business models, structure, processes, technologies, tools, and reward systems fire on all cylinders in symphonic unison.Savvy leaders shape the culture of their company to drive innovation. They know that it’s culture—the values, norms, unconscious messages, and subtle behaviors of leaders and employees—that often limits performance.

The most ridiculous depictions of the Internet in movies and TV

"A present overwhelmed by the not-always-intended effects of the technological world we’d created."

Thu, 13 Jun 2013 12:51:47 -0400

“A present overwhelmed by the not-always-intended effects of the technological world we’d created.”

- Andrew Blum, ‘Children of the Drone’ (2013)

Very similar to this:

Late modernity is a period of social change prompted by the need to cope with the risks generated by modernity itself.

Beck and Beck-Gernsheim, Individualization

Or in this case, the postnormal is a period of social re-equilibration instigated by the chaotic risks posed by the postmodern.

We are catching with postnormal hands what the machinery of control pitched in the postmodern, like drones.

When they start flinging postnormal inventions at us — like autonomous battle robots, or semi-intelligent buildings grown from nano slime, or genetically engineered yogurt yeasts that make us more nationalistic — then we will be all the way into the postnormal, and past the fringes where we are today.

True story: If you’re going to snark on Twitter, there’s a good chance that someone in the Senate might be reading.
