"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax—
Of cabbages—and kings—
And why the sea is boiling hot—
And whether pigs have wings."
- Lewis Carroll

Future of the Internet - Pew Institute
A Pew Internet survey on the Future of the Internet spoke to nearly 900 Internet stakeholders and revealed new perspectives on the way the Internet is affecting human intelligence - memory - and the way we think,
The web-based survey gathered opinions from prominent scientists, business leaders, consultants, writers and technology developers. This reportcovers the experts responses to:
• Will Google make us stupid?The Nicholas Carr article
• Will the internet enhance or detract from reading, writing, and rendering of knowledge?
• Is the next wave of innovation in technology, gadgets, and applications pretty clear now, or will the most interesting developments between now and 2020 come “out of the blue”?
• Will the end-to-end principle of the internet still prevail in 10 years, or will there be more control of access to information?
• Will it be possible to be anonymous online or not by the end of the decade?
As noted above, this year they asked a bunch of experts to comment on the challenge thrown out by Nicholas Carr in a cover story for the Atlantic Monthly, Summer of 20081: "Is Google Making us Stupid?

Te Ara - On Line Encyclopedia
Has a new section launching on 11th March, 2010

NZ Eventfinder / NZ Live
www.eventfinder.co.nz
www.nzlive.govt.nz
NZ Event Finder - the big commercial event database is merging with the NZ Live . The later is/was a NZ Ministry of Culture and Heritage venture - cost a fortune to set up - and is now being absorbed by its commercial competitor. Who incidentally, loathed NZ Live with a passion when it was in competition with it.
The argument is that it makes for a brand new public private partnership - others are wondering what went wrong at NZ Live that it could be absorbed and taken away by Event Finder with hardly a murmer from the arts and cultural sector which it was set up to serve?
