The Rise of Networked Individuals and Their Role in the Life of Entrepreneurs
The Rise of Networked Individuals and Their Role in the Life of EntrepreneursPew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project
The document discusses the rise of networked individualism and its consequences. As societal forces weaken group boundaries and connectivity increases, people are building social networks rather than belonging to tightly bound groups. This has consequences for entrepreneurs, who now operate in a creative ecology where ideas are shared and feedback is important, and who must market in a social media environment where word of mouth and social networks are influential. The constant connectivity brought about by mobile devices and wireless technology is also changing how information flows and is accessed.Pew state of media 2012 overview
This document summarizes key findings from the 2012 Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism report on the state of the American news industry. It notes that technology giants like Google, Facebook, and Apple are increasingly powerful makers of digital services and may acquire major news brands. It also discusses trends like more mobile news consumption, social media being important but not overwhelming drivers of news, growing cable news viewership, more outlets adopting digital subscriptions, and privacy becoming a larger issue for the news industry.

This document discusses the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) by journalists in Egyptian newsrooms. It notes that while Egyptian print media has been authoritarian for 60 years, more Egyptians are now communicating online through increased internet and mobile phone access. Citizens have harnessed ICTs to debate events, criticize the government, and share experiences. However, news organizations still segregate online and print journalists, see online work as secondary, and fail to update online content or interact with audiences. Barriers like individual attitudes, organizational structures, technology issues, professional standards, laws and government policies still hinder the full adoption of ICTs in news production.
News in a networked world
Newspapers remain an important source of local information like community events, schools, and taxes, though people are increasingly getting news online and through social media. As technology changes how people experience news, audiences are fragmenting along partisan lines and discussing news within separate online communities. While people rely on different platforms for different types of news, they are also losing faith in traditional news organizations and perceive greater political bias over time.
Future of democracy and civic innovation
Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 29, 2020 to scholars, policy makers and civil society advocates convened by New York University’s Governance Lab (GovLab). He described findings from two canvassings of hundreds of technology and democracy experts that captured their views about the future of democracy and the future of social and civic innovation by the year 2030. Among other subjects, the experts looked at the impact of misinformation, “techlash” and trust in government institutions.

The document summarizes key points from a presentation by Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Internet Project, about trends in broadband and internet adoption in the United States. It finds that broadband adoption has increased to about 70% of Americans and wireless internet usage through cell phones is also growing rapidly, shrinking the digital divide. However, some groups including older Americans and those in rural areas still lag in adoption rates. The presentation discusses how increased access to broadband and wireless internet is transforming how people access and share information online and through social networks.That Camp2010
The document discusses how museums can adapt to changing media and audience preferences in the digital age. It notes that audiences now get information from various online sources rather than just traditional media. As such, museums need to shift from being temples that disseminate information to forums that allow two-way engagement and sharing of authority with visitors. Suggestions include using technologies like RFID and networks to provide layered experiences, sharing content online, and collaborating with other organizations. The goal is to maintain relevance by connecting audiences to history and stories in a personalized way.

Mobile Governance And Accountability Mobileactive08
The document discusses the potential for using mobile technology to improve citizen participation and local democratic governance in developing countries. It raises questions about how mobile technologies could be used for participatory budgeting, public consultations, and democratic accountability.

Making the Most of Social Media: 7 Lessons from Successful CitiesFels Institute of Government, University of Pennsylvania
Local governments are adopting social media for three main reasons:
1) To directly communicate with constituents, especially younger audiences who are difficult to reach through traditional methods.
2) To attract audiences who opt-in to receive information from their local government rather than passively encountering it.
3) To share information about their work at little to no cost, as social media allow them to reach many people simultaneously in a budget-friendly way. However, adoption of social media among local governments has been mixed, with about half having no official presence on Facebook or Twitter as of mid-2009.Social media for financial institutions
Social media has become a powerful tool for communication and building communities. It allows information to be shared among vast networks of connections, rather than just being pushed out to passive audiences, as was the case with traditional mass media. Key points:
- Social media gives control of information and communities to their members, who decide who and what is let in.
- Popular social platforms like Facebook and YouTube have hundreds of millions of active users and are growing rapidly.
- Financial institutions previously saw social media as a time-waster or security risk for employees, but it is now recognized that customers and employees are already using it, so institutions should consider how to join the conversation in a regulated way that protects customers and integrates with
