participation = responsive
participation = shared work
participation = radical trust
it requires some changes
Authority is content provider Authority is platform provider
this is a discussion about how, not why.
and of course, we invite you to
participate.

LESSON 3:RESPONSIVENESS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE.
HOW CAN USERS MAKE THIS PROJECT BETTER?
“At first, I wasn't sure whether or not my responses were useful to anybody. It took a long time for any feedback to filter through. When it did come I really appreciated Nina's thanks and encouragement. That's what kept me coming back to the site.”
