Five Big Ideas
and One General
Concept
Idea 2: Facebook, Twitter, Mobile Phones,
IM, Discussion Boards, Blogs, Nings, Listservs,
Flickr and related services are altering how 
inter-supportive groups form.
Idea 1: Technology is removing scarsity 
and cost in the areas of publishing, communication,
information access, and connectivity.
Idea 3: Self-organizing groups can create content and action of great value.  Examples: Flickr photo collections, Wikipedia, Publicity for causes, Social Action against repression, and micro-niche support groups.
Idea 4: Professions based on scarsity of information production and distribution will have to change in light of widespread amateurization.
Idea 5: Not all Internet-enhanced groups and causes will be "good."  Examples: teenage pro-anorexia support groups, terrorist groups, how to make homemade bombs, etc.
General Concept: The printing press wasn't good for the profession of "scribes."  The Internet isn't necessarily good for the professions of journalism, professional photographers, and other information specialists.  The change in information access, however, is good for overall society.
