Good article. Wesch is a person we are looking at as a possible keynote speaker for the symposium. Highly recommend everyone check out his work.
Interesting look at Web 2.0 and Second Life and the scope of issues involved. I like the closing comment, “learning is a risky process.” Indeed. We’re all sort of learning together, aren’t we?
