At last, everyone is prepared to admit that the Internet has changed the world. Some think it's a change for the better, with truly revolutionary possibilities for advancing civilization. Others think it's stripping away our capacity for empathy and making our brains incapable of sustained complex thought. Who's right? Come enjoy this double-down grudge match between prominent IT leaders.

#e10_pcp04 reminds me of discussions in the book-- Moral Panics: The Social Construction of Deviance.
The thing that should be found when you google yourself is some substantive contribution to the web. @GardnerCampbell #E10_PCP04 #educause10
