Introduction: The New Neurosis

“Yesterday, I was contacted by an MM reader...”

Neurotic anxiety.

Capture & transmit.

The human network thrives on novelty.

MM, email, Twitter, SMH

And it’s only going to get worse

Part One: The New School

People want to share.

It won’t always work.

Inevitably destabilizing.

hyperconnectivity

hyperintelligence

hyperempowerment

And that’s just the beginning

Do it all themselves.

students, lectures, mentors

as more is shared, it becomes more likely

This is why.

Part Two: The New Boss

You are where the rubber meets the road.

Control.

Information is power.

outside/inside

How interesting. How destabilizing.

You’re damned if you don’t.

All because you shared something.

You’re damned if you do.

Consider that.

The bleeding edge of Government 2.0

Sharing is the rule of our times.

Part Three: The New Book

“Share This Book”

The door closes.

The window opens.

Very strange birds ﬂy in.
