La stanza intelligente è un libro di grande intensità e ricco di riferimenti bibliografici per analizzare l’evoluzione dei percorsi di conoscenza collettiva a seguito dell’affermazione del web. Non è mai scontato Weinberger, nonostante l’iperproduzione di testi su questo argomento rappresenti un rischio; anzi. Il filosofo americano conduce per mano il lettore con una intelligente analisi dei percorsi evolutivi dell’informazione, dalla carta al link: si modificano i sistemi di referaggio dei contenuti, di consultazione, di interazione tra autori e lettori; ma alcuni principi rimangono validi, la valenza delle referenze accademiche o della qualità delle pubblicazioni, a prescindere dalle modalità di diffusione dei contenuti, solo per fare un esempio. Insomma, la teoria di Weinberger è che la conoscenza si evolve, la cartolarizzazione delle idee consentita dal web consente di aprire un dialogo multicanale tra soggetti che difficilmente avrebbero potuto entrare precedentemente in contatto. E’ un libro fondamentale perché va oltre una serie di banalizzazioni sul ruolo di Internet per la diffusione della conoscenza e lo fa con grande rigore, nonostante una certa difficoltà di lettura, dovuta, oggettivamente, alla complessità dell’argomento. I finished this on the plane heading into LA. I really, really enjoyed reading the book, but it is going to take me quite a bit of time to unpack it. I was surprised that its reviews were so mixed. It did not suffer from the flaws attributed to it, I thought. Instead, I think the reviewers were expecting it to put forward a particular kind of argument that Weinberger declined (wisely, IMHO) to engage in. Epistemologically speaking, Weinberger just assumes that the critiques raised by continental thinkers such as Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Foucault have been shown to be justified. His critics seem to want him to rehash and re-argue these critiques. Instead of doing this, Weinberger points to new ways data is being stored and new ways that people are creating knowledge out of these data as examples of how these critiques do a better job of explaining knowledge in today's contexts than do uncritical correspondence theories of truth or the idea that science is a mirror of nature. (I can see how readers who do not share an enthusiasm for continental philosophy and Pragmatism might find this assumption abrupt, but I would have found yet another rehash of that argument tedious and unnecessary.) I've too much to say to put into this Goodreads review, but I hope to have a more thorough one up at informationgames.info in the near future. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

HTML:We used to know how to know. We got our answers from books or experts. Weâ??d nail down the facts and move on. But in the Internet age, knowledge has moved onto networks. Thereâ??s more knowledge than ever, of course, but itâ??s different. Topics have no boundaries, and nobody agrees on anything. Yet this is the greatest time in history to be a knowledge seeker . . . if you know how. In Too Big to Know, Internet philosopher David Weinberger shows how business, science, education, and the government are learning to use networked knowledge to understand more than ever and to make smarter decisions than they could when they had to rely on mere books and experts. This groundbreaking book shakes the foundations of our concept of knowledgeâ??from the role of facts to the value of books and the authority of expertsâ??providing a compelling vision of the future of knowledge in a connec Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

"paper based citations... nails" "hyperlinks...invitations" page 113
"Network decision-making" pages 168-171 "scales better" "excels when decisions require a great deal of local knowledge" "motivate people" "more local knowledge can be applied" makes me wonder if the world of education could be improved with that strategy instead of the top down decisions made by politicians, implemented at the state level and then shoved on down the hierarchy to the LEAs.
