This is scary. It is true.

50% of my blof traffic is now RSS. But they are a savvy bunch. I’m doing some stuff with academics right now – and they have no clue about RSS, blogs, wikis, knowledge management….

It’s very surreal. But then one academic I work with has never opened Excel and creates tables in Word using tabs.

There is a massive IT divide out there. It’s a little but an age thing. But it’s more than that.

We tend to receive positive amplified feedback when our groups consist of those we meet through the medium. If I meet my friends online, using the latest tools, and prefer to spend time following those who can clue me in to the latest and best tools - then I'm bound to meet ever increasing circles of people who are of like mind. Meanwhile, those who are not of similar bent aren't in those circles reminding us that they are out there.Usually anyways. I think you’ve hit a nail on the head squarely here…
