Pinterest! Getting google-shaped
Just Pinned to Education and Digital Cultures:
Among the best ways to improve the usefulness of search results is to analyse which links were ultimately clicked by people who previously performed the same search, as well as what the user has searched for before.
Google has far more of that data than anyone else. That suggests the company may continue to shape our access to knowledge for generations to come.

The Digital Polarization Initiative
The Digital Polarization Initiative is an attempt to build student web literacy by having students participating in a broad, cross-institutional projects around issues of digital polarization.

I can’t remember how I found this site which is infuriating because what attracted me to it was a comment about its being very deliberately a wiki site in order to promote a sharing and collaborative mien rather than a hierarchical, news streaming site (or something like that). It appealed to me because it foregrounds how much relentless internet ‘now time‘ is privileged over ‘slower’ and more thoughtful, inclusive deliberation and how that is achieved.
