A reorientation in the relationship we have to information

Via Howard Rheingold’s FriendFeed, Venessa Miemis’ metathinking manifesto. Miemis lays out a framework based on 3 main concepts:

* Social media is fundamentally changing the human experience.
* The world is increasing in complexity.
* We are experiencing accelerating change.
it seems the most critical skills for success in the 21st century include the ability to anticipate, plan for, and adapt to change.

“Because the nature of information is fundamentally different, it will also be necessary to update our frameworks for how we obtain and process information.a…A new “thought architecture”; to expand thinking to a systems level in order to develop a big-picture understanding of how information is related.

Miemis is going to roll out a series of posts that will outline potential frameworks for making this happen. (JC)
