The potential for the technology to be part of the construction of our ideals is clear every day, but so is the extent to which the web is another mirror to reflect humanity, to change it, deflect it again ... That regress of reflections is nowhere near settling down, and what knowledge we make on the web are so many differently shaped mirrors. In which ones do we see the best of ourselves and what we might - need to - become? What we do now will change humanity.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://coanews.org/article/2007/making-up-minds"><P> Increasingly people want to base what they think and believe on their own experience and authority and do not want to be preached at.</p> <P>This healthy attitude is frustrated by the way people are also finding it harder than ever to know who or what to believe. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B43C844C-7328-48E5-983D-BBE4873525BC/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
