The Institute of Network Cultures

Through my Delicious feed, I found a new site that's intriguing for Internet culture. The Institute of Network Cultures of the Amsterdam Media Research Centre turned up an interesting article on Wikileaks titled, "Ten Theses on Wikileaks." It cites that while Wikileaks considers itself a watchdog of the press, and investigative journalists, they are simply pushing out documents on the Internet and is headed up by an idealistic computer hacker. The article is can be found HERE.

Also on this site had a review on a topic dear to all of my classmates (not to mention our professors), Good Faith Collaboration: The Culture of Wikipedia. I would bet it would make a nice companion book to Everything is Miscellaneous.
