Crowd Sourcing

The spectacle grasped in its totality is both the result and the project of the existing mode of production. It is not a supplement to the real world, an additional decoration. It is the heart of the unrealism of the real society. In all its specific forms, as information or propaganda, as advertisement or direct entertainment consumption, the spectacle is the present model of socially dominant life. It is the omnipresent affirmation of the choice already made in production and its corollary consumption. The spectacle's form and content are identically the total justification of the existing system's conditions and goals. The spectacle is also the permanent presence of this justification, since it occupies the main part of the time lived outside of modern production.
-- Guy Debord, Society of the Spectacle

(Text gratefully copied from here.)

The future belongs to crowds.
-- Don DeLillo in his novel Mao II

What am I on about? This.

I enjoy FB. But some people take it WAY too seriously.
