Hyves: beyond the hype
Interview (Dutch only) Yme Bosma - business development manager Hyves - did with BNR business news radio two days ago. Takes about 35 minutes and starts off 1 minute into the stream. Is Hyves about to be be eaten by Facebook? Social networking and privacy? Where are these guys going to make their money? Get beyond the hype and check it out. Highly recommended.
When the default is private, you have to think about making something public. When the default is public, you become very aware of privacy. And thus, I would suspect, people are more conscious of privacy now than ever. Because not everyone wants to share everything to everyone else all the time.
apophenia: Facebook’s move ain’t about changes in privacy norms
I often have discussions with family and friends about my behavior of sharing a lot of stuff online. Thoughts, photos, videos, you name it. The usual reaction is that I probably don’t care about privacy. Quite the opposite is true. This excellent post explains how. Via Umair Haque on Twitter (@umairh).
