评分(将本书序言摘于此,供大家了解本书内容) 要不是因为涉猎网络较深,我多半会以为现在就像1999年一样,硅谷正再度繁荣,网络幻想家正“东山再起”。 最近在旧金山,我遇到一位对网络极为虔诚的痴迷者。在一次霞多丽 酒会上,我们举杯畅聊,并交换了对新兴事物的看法...
评分在我们这样的世界,指望媒介和社会来帮助自己进行事实判断和价值判断,显得有些奢望了。 面对大规模的业余化,一个独立的人所应该掌握的人的人文社科类的知识: 1)媒介素养 2)逻辑学/批判性思维 3)哲学基础(丧失哲学基础的后果,就是人活着没有特定的立场,而只有飘忽的立...

Amateur hour has arrived, and the audience is running the show
In a hard-hitting and provocative polemic, Silicon Valley insider and pundit Andrew Keen exposes the grave consequences of today’s new participatory Web 2.0 and reveals how it threatens our values, economy, and ultimately the very innovation and creativity that forms the fabric of American achievement.
Our most valued cultural institutions, Keen warns—our professional newspapers, magazines, music, and movies—are being overtaken by an avalanche of amateur, user-generated free content. Advertising revenue is being siphoned off by free classified ads on sites like Craigslist; television networks are under attack from free user-generated programming on YouTube and the like; file-sharing and digital piracy have devastated the multibillion-dollar music business and threaten to undermine our movie industry. Worse, Keen claims, our “cut-and-paste” online culture—in which intellectual property is freely swapped, downloaded, remashed, and aggregated—threatens over 200 years of copyright protection and intellectual property rights, robbing artists, authors, journalists, musicians, editors, and producers of the fruits of their creative labors.
In today’s self-broadcasting culture, where amateurism is celebrated and anyone with an opinion, however ill-informed, can publish a blog, post a video on YouTube, or change an entry on Wikipedia, the distinction between trained expert and uninformed amateur becomes dangerously blurred. When anonymous bloggers and videographers, unconstrained by professional standards or editorial filters, can alter the public debate and manipulate public opinion, truth becomes a commodity to be bought, sold, packaged, and reinvented.
The very anonymity that the Web 2.0 offers calls into question the reliability of the information we receive and creates an environment in which sexual predators and identity thieves can roam free. While no Luddite—Keen pioneered several Internet startups himself—he urges us to consider the consequences of blindly supporting a culture that endorses plagiarism and piracy and that fundamentally weakens traditional media and creative institutions.
