One of the documents I have personally found most influential is H. Jenkins “Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture”. \u00a0The meaning of participatory (or Web 2.0, or the ReadWrite web) seems to be slipping away.

At best, we seem to be drifting toward a feeling that we have contributed something when we point at something someone else has created (my basic issue with those who focus on Twitter).<\/p>\n
