These chapters shine a light towards a whole new way of interacting as a community and with its advantages to connect people all over the world. What allows that is social networking sites such as Facebook. It doesn’t just stop there with social networks now but it continues all the way into ebook as well as e commerce, shopping and searches. With the term Web 2.0 being tossed around, it has made the web more interactive and productive. Since Shirky talks about using our time more productively, these new advantages allows for that. We already can see the new technologies working its way into our classrooms and its just the start but with technological advances can come some disadvantages. I can’t help wonder what will soon follow.
