REFLECTION PERSPECTIVE CONTEXT EARLY WARNING
:
EVERYONE IS A MEDIA MOGUL Internet, and related phenomena has made everyone to a source, communicator and
recipient – so join the movement.
Videos published, aggregated, tagged
and edited
: :
Description
The previous high cost of producing studio quality video or high end designed “magazines” has gone down to nothing. Anyone with
access to a good cell phone can be as powerful as CNN or Al Jazeera.
Implications
The opportunities for executing media campaigns , information warfare, psychological warfare, nice diplomacy, collecting on the spot
information is almost without limits. The skills that create an advantage is fast access to the creative networks, the key analytical skill to make sense of all information available is contextual skills. Truth is every flavor, all the time.
”Sick” Sites that aggregate media within one sector
”Humor ” copycats that is just for ads, counter message, stupidity...
And so on

:
ONLINE Opportunities, confusion, and capabilities
Description

governments. With the advance of user friendly interfaces and the WWW in the early 90ties , infrastructure enhancements and
decreasing costs of technology,- new opportunities for content creation, production and delivery has emerged
Implications
Access to information is global, instantaneous and overwhelming New challenges but also opportunities for accessing and
processing and verifying information has entered the scene. The truth will be corrected… all the time, in several versions.

Access to people is key to
understand intentions and
ideas
Description
Traditional interview techniques, human electing and doing field trips is allowed.. Why not? Access to the networks and communicating
the findings has however dramatically evolved with the use of technology .
Implications
The “ Mark 1 eyeball” is still unbeaten as a tool to get the primary source take on any issue. By using distributed means of reporting, also the offline info can be almost instantaneous.
Technology connects you
to distant networks
Distributed reporting integrated
