crowdsourcing patronage

Posted on 27 August 201728 August 2017 By antipaucity 3 Comments on crowdsourcing patronage

Just what is journalism going to look like in the future? It’s a question that’s been bouncing around my head for a while, and articulated in various pieces by Ben Thompson (in a nichification process), my friend Eric Hydrick, and others. Eric brought up the idea of supporting “special” journalism through services like Patreon. I…

how to turn a google+ community into a quasi “mailing list”

Posted on 22 March 201621 March 2016 By antipaucity No Comments on how to turn a google+ community into a quasi “mailing list”

Spurred by a recent question from an acquaintance in town, I asked on Google+ whether or not you can enable emailed notifications for a Community. This led to the elaborate Settings page for G+.

redecentralizing school

Posted on 8 February 20135 November 2022 By antipaucity 3 Comments on redecentralizing school

I have a very long–term interest in education. As I look at the current public education “system” in the US, I can see a variety of major problems.

asymmetric communication – the facebookification of society

Posted on 19 September 201220 September 2012 By antipaucity 7 Comments on asymmetric communication – the facebookification of society

The first communication method we ever learn is the interaction between ourselves as infants and our caregivers (just to cover the possibility of a parent, foster parent, day care worker, orphanage employee, etc).
