Localeaks: A Drop-Box for Anonymous Tips to 1400 U.S. Newspapers Although the mission of WikiLeaks is to "open governments," it's done quite a lot to make us think about how to open journalism as well. We've seen a number of new whistleblower sites crop up - OpenLeaks and Rospil, for example - as well as major news organizations - Al Jazeera, and perhaps even The New York Times - investigate ways to facilitate more whistle-blowing and leaking. But why wait for local newspapers to roll out their own anonymous tips pipeline when a project from CUNY Graduate School's Entrepreneurial Journalism program has designed just that thing. Using Localeaks, you can send an anonymous tip, including a file, to over 1400 newspapers in the U.S. through one online form. Choose your state. Each drop-box consists of a secure web connection and a form that encrypts both files and the text submitted (then destroys the originals) as well as removes identifying metadata from documents. Once a file is submitted, the newspaper will receive an email, alerting them to the tip.
Wikileaks Lessons for Business: Authenticity before transparency December 2nd, 2010 · 1 Comment Wikileaks is offering real time transparency in policy making and statesmanship. Business may think this has nothing to do with them. You are next, I assure you. Here is what you can do to defend yourself. What I mean by this suggestion is that more attention is being paid to whether the leaks are appropriate than whether the conduct they expose is appropriate. Leaders have become so depend on the ability to present their case with different spins that it never occurs to them that there is another way. First, a person thinks about and includes in their communication what will be seen as central to or have meaning attributed to it, by everyone those who will be effected. I have a friend, Bob Mang, who does this with every situation and it sometimes drives me crazy. Second, an authentic leader seeks to represent the same situation in the same way, no matter the audience or situation, because they seek to include the whole in their thinking and interactions.

РосПил The Forward Foundation - One identity or more? » Article » OWNI.eu, Digital Journalism Given the discussion about Facebook enabling other sites to use its comment infrastructure — and what that means for identity and anonymity in discussion — I thought I’d share some of what I’m saying about the question of multiple identities in my book. One tactic to cope with the fear of exposure and overexposure is anonymity. Anonymity has its place. But anonymity is often the cloak of cowards. Real identity has improved the tone and tenor of interaction online. Zuckerberg believes we have one authentic identity and says it is becoming “less and less true” that people will maintain separate identities. What needs to change is not so much our behavior, our rules, or our technology but, again, our norms: how we operate as a society and interact with each other. There are two forces at work here: identity and reputation. Marilyn Monroe was a public figure but most of us are private citizens. These are new skills for everyone, celebrity and commoner alike.
John Seely Brown: Chief of Confusion PinoyLeaks - Fight Corruption Memetics | Meme Hacking At PivotCon 2010, Douglas Rushkoff made some extremely cogent arguments about why brands cannot go viral on social networks — even when there’s plenty of activity on companies’ websites and Facebook pages — and why it’s pointless to try to push brand concepts (such as mascots) around as memes in the expectation of driving actual product sales. This talk is exceptionally amusing both for its venue — he’s at a branding conference talking about social media — and for the fact that he opens the talk by saying, essentially, “you think you’re talking about what’s happening, but you’re not.” He managed to rankle more than a few career marketeers who oversimplified his message to mean “marketing is evil”; the mild antagonism to this particular audience inherent in his message did not go unnoticed by PivotCon organizer Chris Shipley who made no bones about the reason they decided to schedule his talk dead last.
thaicables – It's Your Right to know the Truth! Les outils collaboratifs renforcent-ils la cohésion de l'entreprise ? Afin d'éviter le débauchage de salariés, les compagnies ont intérêt à rassembler leurs équipes de recherche en groupes de travail. Réels plus que virtuels, ces derniers visent surtout à souder des liens existants. Pour éviter que les individus talentueux associés autour d’un projet, ne soient encouragés par la concurrence à quitter l’entreprise, il faut renforcer le travail d’équipe, notent dans un rapport des chercheurs de l’université Carlos III de Madrid. Les scientifiques se sont intéressés à une entreprise high-tech en particulier : IBM. Ils soulignent que ce sont souvent les acteurs clés, dont l’expertise est déterminante pour faire avancer tel ou tel projet de R&D qui sont "courtisés" par des sociétés concurrentes. Ainsi, paradoxalement, les personnes les plus impliquées sont dans certains cas celles qui ont le plus de chances de quitter l’entreprise.
