The Prospects for Consumer-Oriented Social Media
http://www.rogerclarke.com/II/COSM-1402.html
The term 'social media' refers to a cluster of applications and
online services that support human interaction and content
broadcasting and sharing. Current services are isolated islands or
'walled gardens', and are based on a business model that is highly
exploitative of individuals and their data. An alternative,
consumer-oriented approach is feasible, involving open architecture,
inter-operability and portability features, fair terms and
privacy-sensitivity. Key impediments to the emergence of such
services are identified, and means of overcoming the impediments are
outlined.
