Selling ideas in the new world order
2009 June 28
David Armano asks, with this model of round vs. flat worlds (I prefer to call it tiered vs. flat hierarchy), if it’s who you know or what they know that matters.
Who knows what about you?
I say it’s who knows you, and what they think about you.
Going off on a tangent, I think it’s interesting how we used to speak of discrimination on the basis of looks. In the online marketplace of ideas, do we now judge people by how they write, and is there anything to say we shouldn’t?
Is copyediting the new plastic surgery?
