Patrick Schwerdtfeger discusses social media and how real-time peer evaluation has created a wholesale cultural shift in our society.  In the good old days, people looked at the Source first and the Content second.  In other words, who's saying it was first.  What they were saying was second.  Today, that is completely reversed.  Today, they look at the content first and the source second.

This video was recorded on August 15, 2009 in Berkeley, CA.
