Status Updates From Superbloom: How Technologie...

Studies have shown: the more we find out about another person, the more we are apt to dislike them, not like them more. This is what happens on social media with the constant posts and updates. We start to serious dislike people for doing nothing more than showing us what they had for dinner...every. single. night. of. the. week.

The history of communication -- the mail, telegraph, radio and up to the internet. They've all had massive influence but were susceptible to the same problems.

New for me: the US did not regulate ham radio so as not to inhibit "progress" but when the Titanic sank the public was outraged to hear rescue efforts were scuttled due to a huge amount of radio chatter and "fake news" that the ship was NOT sinking.

Trovo anche moltissimi riferimenti di autori purtroppo non ancora tradotti in italiano

Più si prosegue, più si fa interessante. I primi 2/3 capitoli sono un excursus delle prime forme di comunicazione a distanza (telegrao e primi media). A mio parere i primi capitoli scorrono lenti, poi migliora la lettura man mano (anche per questo difficilmente mollo un libro iniziato☺️)
