A Quote from Dirk Singer and Paul Bradshaw on QuoteURL

dirkthecow great article on the "daily me" or how the Internet is narrowing our viewpoints, from Nicholas Kristof in the NYT http://bit.ly/lsH3 1 year, 4 months ago from TweetDeck
paulbradshaw @dirkthecow I disagree. He has no evidence the Internet will make that worse. 1 year, 4 months ago from m.slandr.net
dirkthecow @paulbradshaw agree he gives no evidence,but my own personal experience mirrors what he says,I follow and read stuff from people 'like me' 1 year, 4 months ago from TweetDeck in reply to paulbradshaw
paulbradshaw @dirkthecow but we do that offline too -he's suggesting the net makes it worse. Evidence doesn't back that up. 1 year, 4 months ago from Tweetie in reply to dirkthecow
dirkthecow @paulbradshaw but isn't it so that when we all watched the evening news we were forced to hear different opinions, now we filter them more? 1 year, 4 months ago from Tweetie in reply to paulbradshaw
paulbradshaw @dirkthecow one stat sticks out in my mind: 46% of people come across news stories while searching for something else 1 year, 4 months ago from Tweetie in reply to dirkthecow
dirkthecow @paulbradshaw another interesting piece is this one on 'homophily' by Oliver Burkeman in The Guardian http://bit.ly/5qPXJ 1 year, 4 months ago from TweetDeck in reply to paulbradshaw
