Is the Web a Medium or a World?

This question will be the focus of the next Web of Ideas, a discussion group led by Berkman Fellow and author David Weinberger. As Weinberger explains, "At one level, the Web is a medium through which messages are passed from A to B. But if we acknowledge that the medium affects the messages or even that the medium is the message, the very idea that it's a medium obscures much of importance about the Web." This Web of Ideas Session will take place on Wednesday, January 12 from 6:00-7:30 pm at the Berkman Center.
