This is an interesting talk by a theorist mentioned in our lectures on new media. The talks main focus is how society is becoming more 'wired' and why we should be concerned. Some interesting points raised. It's also worth scrolling down to get to the comments section which make for an interesting read too.
The links below belongs to a series of ted talks on new media. Worth having a watch if you have time. The second link, filter bubbles, looks at how your searches on google are automatically customised by your previous searches and why that is a problem. Interesting and eye opening stuff.
