9. These networked conversations are enabling powerful new forms of social organization and knowledge exchange to emerge.

The era of the internet has changed how people communicate and converse with each other. A new way for people to get together is through social organizations. These organizations connect all people around the world and give them the opportunity to talk and know some things about each other. The social organizations gives people a place where to exchange what they know about things and share it to other people. The knowledge that they share are those which is free. They don’t find any exchanges for it.

The exchange of knowledge can range from personal thoughts to group ideas which give others the chance to learn from them and make something out of it. The learning process of these people is large and free because of the help other people are giving them. A good example for this is when a person would buy something. Then that person logs on to the internet and asks other people for comments and suggestions. The comments and suggestions of those people would greatly help the one who will buy the product because other people could tell the buyer if ever a specific thing whether good or bad about the product is present. This information would give the buyer the advantage because the buyer already knows the things to expect to the product that the buyer would purchase. Another advantage is that the information and knowledge given are free of charge. They are just those people who like to help out others just for the heck of it. Some of them might be employees of the company who created the product and some might be just people who always hang around the web helping out others for pass time.
