Column posted on the AlwaysOn Network examines Andrew Keen's new book, "The Cult of the Amateur: How Today's Internet is Killing Our Culture."
The column examines the problems with sites like Digg as well as with the Google Page Rank algorithm, and how the so-called "wisdom of the crowds" might be better named the "idiocy of the crowds."
"We've gone from an age of information to an age of noise, a step backward. A major step backward. The goal is to create an age of knowledge. And I see this as the biggest opportunity -- and challenge -- facing those of us in this market."
