Opportunities
Increasing social interaction and opportunities
Gives people a voice - 'hierachy of discourse' is disrupted
Provides tools for what people want to do - talk to each other and share things
connect/share/communicate/inspire - and disrupt in a positive sense
Technology can provide a focus for joining different groups together
Barriers
Schools banning mobile phones - why? Seen as threat to classroom control
Maybe when a technology becomes ubiquitous, it is seen as 'bad' (like TV).
Social control of technology - constrains how it's used.
There are dangers of the cloud - who decides, what information is collected by you.
Distinction between using and owning the space.
