This article takes the idea of 'every person a teacher' as a point of departure and loops through some recent discussion on the nature of social media, discussion that is echoing commentary I have been seeing elsewhere ("if all media is social," says one commentator on iDC, "then why do we call it social media?"). As a summary article it's pretty good, but read some of the claims with a note of scepticism. It is helpful to recall that connecting every person to every other is not an ideal; that produces a world of static, not knowledge.
