New book just released
George Siemens has kindly released his new book as series of .pdf files which you are free to download, or you can read and contribute to the wiki conversation, or you can thumb through the excellent graphics on Flickr
In this book George looks at ways the context around knowledge is changing and the influence this is having on knowledge itself:
1. The rise of the individual - ability to voice and show, blogs and YouTube
2. Increased connectedness - affordances for conversation
3. Immediacy and 'now' - knowledge half-life is shrinking fast
4. Breakdown and repackaging - new tools allow rip, mix and burn
5. Prominence of the conduit - new publishing media have opened things
6. Global socialization - networking everywhere from MySpace to SecondLife
7. Blurring worlds of physical and virtual - 'on the go' becomes the norm
