Although it is too critical and cynical, it actually raises good points.

安德鲁·基恩,美国著名媒体人,频繁出现在各大媒体节目中,如,福克斯新闻、CNN国际、BBC晚间新闻等。他还为《伦敦独立报》写一个关于企业重组的专栏,同时也在为Dutch paper Volkskrant 和the Belgium daily De Standaard 两个纸媒撰写专栏。
Amateur hour has arrived, and the audience is running the show
In a hard-hitting and provocative polemic, Silicon Valley insider and pundit Andrew Keen exposes the grave consequences of today’s new participatory Web 2.0 and reveals how it threatens our values, economy, and ultimately the very innovation and creativity that forms the fabric of American achievement.
Our most valued cultural institutions, Keen warns—our professional newspapers, magazines, music, and movies—are being overtaken by an avalanche of amateur, user-generated free content. Advertising revenue is being siphoned off by free classified ads on sites like Craigslist; television networks are under attack from free user-generated programming on YouTube and the like; file-sharing and digital piracy have devastated the multibillion-dollar music business and threaten to undermine our movie industry. Worse, Keen claims, our “cut-and-paste” online culture—in which intellectual property is freely swapped, downloaded, remashed, and aggregated—threatens over 200 years of copyright protection and intellectual property rights, robbing artists, authors, journalists, musicians, editors, and producers of the fruits of their creative labors.
In today’s self-broadcasting culture, where amateurism is celebrated and anyone with an opinion, however ill-informed, can publish a blog, post a video on YouTube, or change an entry on Wikipedia, the distinction between trained expert and uninformed amateur becomes dangerously blurred. When anonymous bloggers and videographers, unconstrained by professional standards or editorial filters, can alter the public debate and manipulate public opinion, truth becomes a commodity to be bought, sold, packaged, and reinvented.
The very anonymity that the Web 2.0 offers calls into question the reliability of the information we receive and creates an environment in which sexual predators and identity thieves can roam free. While no Luddite—Keen pioneered several Internet startups himself—he urges us to consider the consequences of blindly supporting a culture that endorses plagiarism and piracy and that fundamentally weakens traditional media and creative institutions.
Offering concrete solutions on how we can reign in the free-wheeling, narcissistic atmosphere that pervades the Web, THE CULT OF THE AMATEUR is a wake-up call to each and every one of us.</p>

评分精英主义,和反精英主义的反动 ——基恩何时走上TED大会的讲台? 基恩认为,业余人士终究是业余人士;精英总归是精英。 与基恩观点针锋相对的另一位网络研究者Clay Shirky认为,哪怕是最愚蠢的创作行为,也终归是艺术。[GSS:参见其TED报告,How cognitive surplus will cha...
评分这是一本被忽视的好书。 几乎每一个看过这本书的人都说这是一本好书。 甚至有朋友还专门打电话给我,想说点关于这本书的东西。 这在以往来讲是很少见的。 虽然我们也推出过很多畅销书,出版过很多好书, 但朋友要亲自打电话告诉我,说这本书好。这还是第一次。 让我很感动。 但...
评分 评分看到王小峰在不许联想中说自己读到一本好书《网民的狂欢》,不知道到底是怎么样的一本书,所以趁着五一放假在万圣买了一本。恰巧五一期间又在看bbc的virtual revolution,两厢映照便有了一些看法。 其实我刚一拿到《网民的狂欢》就很不喜欢,因为其英文名字明明为the cult of t...
