aNobii is simple and useful book tracking system. I don’t think there is any imaginable feature they have left out.

After a quick registration you select your book shelf language. Add the books you own, either by title or ISBN. It is possible to import book list from other services, but you can also use an excel spreadsheet or a list from anywhere.

Back in October there was an article in the New York Times called “Facebook in a Crowd” by Hal Niedzviecki. In the article he describes how he reached out to his almost 700 friends to invite them to a Facebook party. After tabulating the responses Hal had 15 people who said they were attending, 60 that said maybe, a few hundred that said no and no responses from the rest. On the evening of the Facebook party one person (a friend of a friend) showed up to meet him.

Facebook reaches over 45 million (U.S.) monthly people.

This Saturday I attended finale test for MBA scholarship. It was hard but worth trying episode. Hopefully there will be more to write about this matter in the future.

Civilizacijska nadgradnja laži – neresnice je neresničnost – virtualnost. Ni še povsem jasno, kako, če sploh, bomo preživeli virtualni svet, v katerega so nas ujeli. Virtualna ekonomija, virtualne vojne, virtualna družba in virtualni prijatelji. Najprej se zdi, da v računalnikih in na svetovnem spletu izmišljeni svet živi sam zase, da nas ne zadeva in ne ogroža. Pravkar pa doživljamo svetovno kataklizmo, ker se je virtualni svet spečal z realnim, ker so nas predniki spet vodili za nos, ker je ponovno zavladala laž. Res.

To maximize social networking power there are problems you must consider.

• Don’t build in the dark.
• Don’t build without a vision.
• Don’t build too fast NOR too slow.
• Don’t build without a written plan.
• Don’t build without profiting.

Blogi so preplavili splet, mnogi pa se zanj še vedno ne odločijo. Zdi se jim brezveze, so preleni, nimajo znanja. Če nimate volje sporočati, lepite slike, rezultate priljubljenih tekem, zbirajte skrinšote priljubljenih igric, rož … blog je univerzalno orodje.

Ponudb za začet je preveč, najdejo pa se rešitve od najpreprostejše do advanced users only.

Blogger. Dobro se poveže z očetom Googlom, kjer nas ima veliko primarni G-email in kjer je še kopica drugih drobnih goodijev, ki nam omogočajo lažje življenje. Blogger je preprosto orodje, prijavite se lahko že z obstoječim Google računom, sporočila in slikice lahko objavljate z mobilnikom, izbirate različne teme, ni reklam. Enostavno, super, vendar omejeno. Za skromno doplačilo pa lahko blog obesite tudi na svojo domeno.

Old and young kids use the Internet daily for hours and hours. Some of them exist just on the Internet. A lot of people lead two or more lives/personalities (net life, net friends, etc.) not understanding the principles of globalisation and the Internet.

Today compare to years ago?

Today almost everybody is on the Internet, starting with small kids, housewives up to most advanced users, so called hackers and developers who together build Internet safety and the infrastructure. Governments all over the world are putting a lot of pressure on those people because they are directly connected to personal data of lots of users. This fact puts them into constant fear, dangerous situations and unhuman pressure. Small people have access to servers, routers, infrastructure. The Internet is an open system and millions of pieces of personal data can get out through a single, small system hole, notebooks can be stolen … and there is no law, that can protect us. We have to know how to live with it. We lost the battle for the clean Internet when the Internet was invented.

Social networking sites

If we connect through a social network site, our relationship remains that of a stranger to stranger. We have to be as careful as possible – making real friends is not that easy and this process cannot be changed by a technologial approach. Use social networking service carefully, keep in touch with your real friends, share photos, thoughts and ideas. It is dangerous to have lots of virtual friends all around the world, but none in your basic, primary everyday social network.

There are many traps and risks – the Internet is large, free to all, information are not always good, nice and clean. That makes the Internet the most polluted information channel of mankind. We cannot change this fact, but we can change relations, educate kids how to live healthy, avoid danger and traps.

What is once on the Internet it remains there

The Net is an information junkyard. People are surfing around and using Internet services more and more. The most popular application today is social networking and those sites are affecting the political order of the world.

Internet 2.0 (share as much you can)

Internet revolution or going to 2.0 – global competition, global information exchange. We share our work, intelligence and our minds. Are we being controlled by Google, Microsoft or … by all? You decide.

Information that you produce, you can be shared with Facebook, Microsoft, the government or with God. You have to decide who to trust.

Spread information online, have your 2.0 profile, put yourself on a blog, make presentations online, build a professional network with LinkedIN, be present on Myspace or Facebook, but connect with people that you can trust or use an alter personallity for making new relations. Get to know them better and then bring them into your primary social network.

Forgiveness, faith, love

The world is bad, we are sorrounded by fear and we all can become victims of torture and violence, but no one can kill the faith in a better future.

If you get into trouble, torture mixed with bad emotions, don’t become an EMO, don’t stop. Move on, live and make tomorrow.

Te informacije se pojavljajo v navezi s spletno skupnostjo Mobisux, katera vidno razpada. Razlog je neurejenost, nezmožnost nadzora, naveličanost “vodilnih” in neurejenost pri menjavah ljudi v vodstvu. Številni smo ujeti v informacije, katere se pretakajo skozi ta informacijski kanal in se ne moremo premakniti ne levo ne desno. Večina ima napačno predstavo, gradijo se brezsmiselni konstrukti. Lastniki foruma so forumaši, ljudje oz. »novinarji« kateri ustvarjajo vsebino. Digitalna metropola bi se morala organizirati kakor prava skupnosti, saj je socialna interakcija podobna – ljudje različnih interesov in prepričanj se zbirajo okoli blagovne znamke.

Forum potrebuje politično vodstvo, katero bi naj nadziralo informacije in pazilo, da mentalna higiena ne gre čez rob. Teoretična zmožnost nadzorovanja teh informacij »lastniku« povzroča težave iz katerih je pot zgolj skozi drastično reorganizacijo oz. volitve. Mnogi mi zaradi očitnega izmiranja spletne strani pošiljajo ponudbe za odkup, vendar foruma, brez soglasja večinskega lastnika (forumašev), po mojem osebnem mnenju ni mogoča. Najboljši način je, da se forum oz. podjetje preoblikuje v delniško družbo, delnice pa razdeli med ljudi in zadevo plasira na borzo.

V socialnih mrežeh je potrebno izvoliti ustrezne organe in ustvariti formalna povezave z “realnim svetom”, državo. Sporočila so last avtorjev, informacije pa last vseh, zato e-skupnosti v tej obliki ni mogoče prodati.

Rešitve problemov so, a se ne izvajajo. Ena politika se vodi v smer ukinitve, druga ureditve, tretja restarta, četrta … »lastnik« pa vse to zgolj nemočno opazuje in ne more storiti nobenega, še tako očitnega koraka. Problem skupnosti smo vsi ljudje in ljudje »na položajih« se morajo ciklično menjavati – spletna skupnost se lahko spravi v gibanje in razvoj najbrž le z volitvami in dokler se ne bodo izvedle se bo propadanje nadaljevalo! Uporabniki foruma imajo praktično polno kontrolo nad blagovno znamko in “lastnikom”, kateri je že zdavnaj opustil vsa vlaganja v razvoj, saj spletna stran ne nosi nobene finančne koristi, knjigovodski lastnik se ne more umakniti, strani prodati. Negotovost pa traja in traja …

Rešitev za sprostitev napetosti, zagon in ohranitev spletne skupnosti Mobisux so naslednje:

- organizacija volitev za nov nadzorni organ,
- konverzija skupnosti v delniško družbo, razdelitev delnic, borza
- ponovni zagon foruma,

Gre za pomembne družbene odločitve o katerih »lastnik foruma« neglede na vedenje ne more odločati, ampak se morajo o tem odločiti uporabniki sami. “Lastnik foruma” ne more in ne želi poskrbeti za te aktivnosti in če se v državi pojavljajo referendumi za še tako nemogoče zadeve, ne bi bilo slabo razmisliti, da se morda o teh, za družbo pomembnih vprašanjih, odloči vsa družba.

Po mojih osebni oceni se problematike socialnih mrež zaveda precej ljudi, vendar nihče ne požene aktivnosti, da bi se stvari začele urejati kakor naj bi bilo prav. Upam, da bo te informacije pridejo v prava ušesa in da se bo o problemih začeli govoriti na glas. Razmere v elektronski skupnosti so kaotične, sinhroniziranje nevidnih množic z državo pa poteka precej neusklajeno in mnogo prepočasi.

Era of modern technology
Mobile phones and internet is making groups of social networks. People should understand it and live with it. Natural behavour of social networking is that we have a lot of so-called alpha users, evangelist, people which can gain other users into action. It’s natural social network behavour. It is out there, people is making it.

In online community we usualy have a lot of alfa users. Anybody have ability to become alfa user. Who can determine, who is real alpha user and who is not? Advertising agencies, which can produce games and entertaiment among this information. Community is usualy measured by several different sources, what means that there are more information resources on the market.

All alpha users can act as »big brothers« and are competing for information power throught several nodes, which are basicly independent social channels. Souch users produce and absorb most relevant information among society. It is situation of virtual democracy.

People decide

People, network of alpha users is having ability to change situation and they need to be guided and organized. Ordinary people and users which build around themselves their own social networks are running online community.

Alfa users produce information channels

Communities are changing people’s behavior and social needs. They have need to participate online and their online personality is saint.

Social networking hubs

So called alpha users are community communicators. They are leaders to their own virtual worlds, which together establish »virtual control« over community. We also know users called evangelist, which usualy produce relevant information. It can be alone user or a small network.

Power of digital community

Online community is constructed from several nodes, which have their own opinion and goals and they are managing their own social network. They are influented by opinion makers, alpha users, evangelists. There is no starting or ending point of community.

Alpha users are connecting informations together and they need a change time to time. Online community need several political changes to establish healthy collaboration among users, alpha users, evangelist and rest of (non) virtual society.

Fun

People need fun, entertaiment and development, network of alfa users needs leaders which want’s to procede certain actions for further community development, connect social channel into rest of society and worldwide.
