Trivia: Top ten sites visited by Filipinos are: Yahoo, Friendster, Google, Youtube, Multiply, Wikipedia, Blogger, Imeem, Photobucket, and Msn.

Next top sites are: 11-15, Would You Believe, Youporn!, Rapidshare, Y8, nba.com, Microsoft.

The youth today learn more about the world via the net than teachers. It should be studied. There’s a lot of trash out there.

A mosaic of the connective intelligence is: people on the net create, share, re-create, extend content because of similar interests.

Wisdom of the Crowd: Given a popular idea, the majority rules. Popular idea rules, common idea rules, common idea is the one who rules.

Blogs are connective inteligence; wikis in a way are also collective intelligence, more wisdom of the crowd.

New formed idea is crowd sourcing or the collaboration of the abilities of the crowd.

Collective intelligence is better in smaller groups, not the whole world.
