I was not particularly roused by Alan Levine’s article on web 2.0. I find that while it is now incredibly easy to post information and use powerful new tools that much of that information is of poor quality and that the tools rarely produce quality. Some are saying that this is a fad. I doubt this is true but to a certain extent I wish it were. To be sure access to information is wonderful but only if that information is true and has value. The subtle rejection of the old did not help either. Nobody should ever do anything just because they can. I also wonder what happened to the concepts of pride and privacy.
