the other issue is not just on your web site but how do you get it to other web sites where there are people of white interests? that is a big challenge for us in communities of color to identify these places where you are most likely to have impact. i am optimistic about social media. >> i agree with joel dreyfuss and we can have meaningful conversations in short messages. is not just one week is the entire conversation. what happens when you have people participate is you have these ideas to express thoughts and ideas and collective statements and photos that carry a story and allow you to get more meaningful content. the other things social media has done, is the just to the new way that media is being consumed. i am sorry. the other things social media allows us to do is adjust to the way media is being consumed. even though long form pieces might not always work on the web there's a way to adapt it so people can consume it and that is something we have been successful doing at "the root". .. when i was writing black publishers book review and it allows you to have a daily communi

through some quirk we're less protected on the web. so, actually, as someone who previously worked in the area of genetics, and i chaired the federal budget commission on the human genome project, so i was warned i could be targeted with others involved by the "unabomber" at the time, and one of the people who was close to me in that process actually was a target. so i take seriously and totally distinguished that sort of concern about all technologies and where we're going, but with my position, which is they're great but how that's being used against us in an unexpected way. >> host: just to take this conversation a different direction in this book you tell us the u.s. military in february of 2010, embraced social metworking in a big way. tell me how. >> guest: it's stunning. you think that you could understand why the military might have the position, they don't want people in the middle of combat going on their facebook pages. a lot of other things to do but recently they started allowing people to use iphones and smart phones in p

and that is the worldwide web and protocols of the web. and the reason i think that was a huge shift is that it shifted us away from having an internet-based content on community and more on publishing. it was actually a regression in some ways. once again, people just sort of published things or put things out, even if they were bloggers or newspapers or magazines or new newspapers and magazines. it was much more of a you put your content, your pictures, whatever out for people to see. and the community was relegated to comment sections at the end, which were generally brain dead and stupid. now we're having another major shift that started three or four years ago for the next 25 years of the web, itsomes seems to me. it's being based on social networks and social media everything from facebook to twitter, which is bringing us back, thankfully i think, to a combination of people publishing things but also people forming communities, forming circles, forming discussion groups. and in some ways instead of resembling the web, the social medi
