I'm amused by the implication that The Wisdom of Crowds is a Web 2.0 textbook. It's like "obviously this is not the wisdom of crowds, have they not even read the book?!" I'm not sure that's what they're even aiming at. For my part, I just want a few interesting news stories.

- david 19y agoI remember in the early days of reddit some people claiming reddit/digg were a good idea because they used the WoC idea, and thinking that wasn't really correct. I've always thought a lot of the problems with social news could be solved by following the WoC model more closely (ie: it would be a better way of getting "a few interesting news stories"), but apparently I'm one of the 20 or so people who isn't hip to facebook, so I don't know if I'll be trying wildfire.
