ワインバーガー曰く:《「日刊・俺」(The Daily Me) は個人をアトム化しない──分子化する》


個人の嗜好・関心に合わせたニュースを選択的に表示するサービスは当人をその嗜好・関心の繭に心地よく閉じこめてしまう,といった話を聞きかじることがよくあるのですが:

This binding is certainly different from the way broadcast media have formed one nation, under Walter Cronkite. With everyone seeing the same national news and reading the same handful of local newspapers, there was a shared experience that we could count on. Now, as our social networks create third-order front pages unique to our group's interests, we at least get past the oft-heard objection that what Nicholas Negroponte called The Daily Me fragments our culture into isolated individuals. In fact, we are more likely to be reading The Daily Me, My Friends, and Some Folks I Respect. We're not being atomized. We're molecularizing, forming groups that create a local culture. What's happening falls between the expertise of the men in the editorial boardroom and the "wisdom of crowds." It is the wisdom of groups, employing social expertise, by which the connextions among people help guide what the group learns and knows.
