Why Networks and Social Production Matter
Short lecture [with recap of Monday]
Social production
The power of networks

For discussion:

Lab:
Discussion leader assignments
- See the students page
- See the assignments page
- Working in pairs, search Slideshare.net and find at least one “good” and one “bad” example presentation related to course topics or your research topics. Please comment on this post with your examples (links!) and an explanation. Tell me the names of the folks in the pair, please. :-)
- Folks for next week: meet with me briefly after class!
Your Slideshare.net account

/ 11 January 2012We as Tasha Martin, Glenn Smith, and Zack Ui do not like this presentation on slide share at all. The small words hurt my eyes and the minimal pictures they have aren’t entertaining…

/ 11 January 2012Good presentation: http://www.slideshare.net/happykatie/blogging-for-business-an-introduction-to-playing-in-the-blogosphere Shows how businesses can use blogging, tips/tricks for business blogging
Bad:http://www.slideshare.net/yongfook/the-blog-is-dead-presentation Trying to be humorous, but it’s not. Convoluted, lose track of what you’re supposed to be looking at.

I think slide 10 of this presentation is similar to Newsweek’s cover of Michelle Bachmann.

/ 11 January 2012Good Example:
http://www.slideshare.net/merlinmann/how-to-blog-presentation
(informative, simple, and entertaining)
Bad Example:
http://www.slideshare.net/rdesalvo/blogs-and-wikis-for-beginners
(lacked creativity, no depth, and not engaging)
