Naked Conversations

“Formality suppresses dialogue; informality encourages it. Formal conversations and presentations leave little room for debate. They suggest that everything is scripted and predetermined. Informal dialogue is open. It invites questions, encourages spontaneity and critical thinking...Informality gets the truth out. It surfaces out-of-the-box ideas -- the ideas that may seem absurd at first hearing but that create breakthroughs.“

Fair or not, anytime commandos fire on civilians — even those armed with clubs, slingshots, stun grenades, etc. — in the court of public opinion, they become the aggressors.

“The reality is you cannot operate in this environment passively,” said David Axelrod, the president’s senior adviser. “If you do, the coverage and events will be shaped for you. Things that may seem like trivial distinctions can become large problems in terms of communications unless you’re aggressive about engaging. We didn’t create the environment. We didn’t make the rules. But we have to live with it.”

• When commandos fire on civilians — even those armed with clubs, slingshots, stun grenades, etc. — in the court of public opinion, are seen the aggressors because their actions are seen as disproportionate.

• The public has a short attention span and is resistant to complex explanations, however logical they may be so communicators must learn to drip their message into status updates.

• The IDF may have completed their military operation successfully, but the incident wound up emboldening the cause of anti-Israel activists and prompting calls for the US to reassess its aid to the Jewish State.

Value of Social Networking to Individuals

Excerpts:•Each little update — each individual bit of social information — is insignificant on its own, even supremely mundane. But taken together, over time, the little snippets coalesce into a surprisingly sophisticated portrait of your friends’ and family members’ lives, like thousands of dots making a pointillist painting.

•Merely looking at a stranger’s Twitter or Facebook feed isn’t interesting, because it seems like blather. Follow it for a day, though, and it begins to feel like a short story; follow it for a month, and it’s a novel.

•For them, participation isn’t optional. If you don’t dive in, other people will define who you are. So you constantly stream your pictures, your thoughts, your relationship status and what you’re doing — right now! — if only to ensure the virtual version of you is accurate, or at least the one you want to present to the world.

•“If anything, it’s identity-constraining now,” Tufekci told me. “You can’t play with your identity if your audience is always checking up on you.
