He may perish in conflict before he learns to wield that record for his true good.
I fear this is so.

His excursions may be more enjoyable if he can reacquire the privilege of forgetting the manifold things he does not need to have immediately at hand, with some assurance that he can find them again if they prove important.
This is one of my difficulties. I put a lot of stuff in my blog-as-memex but don't have a good way of surfacing them again. Theoretically I could do this with categories, but that gets overwhelming fast. This is why I'm thinking about using a blog and a wiki together for this purpose.

There is a new profession of trail blazers, those who find delight in the task of establishing useful trails through the enormous mass of the common record.
It me! This is kinda what people who operate as web librarians do.
-
When the user is building a trail, he names it, inserts the name in his code book, and taps it out on his keyboard. Before him are the two items to be joined, projected onto adjacent viewing positions. At the bottom of each there are a number of blank code spaces, and a pointer is set to indicate one of these on each item. The user taps a single key, and the items are permanently joined. In each code space appears the code word.
This is tagging.

if the user inserted 5000 pages of material a day it would take him hundreds of years to fill the repository, so he can be profligate and enter material freely.
How many people use Evernote as a Memex?

The human mind does not work that way. It operates by association. With one item in its grasp, it snaps instantly to the next that is suggested by the association of thoughts, in accordance with some intricate web of trails carried by the cells of the brain. It has other characteristics, of course; trails that are not frequently followed are prone to fade, items are not fully permanent, memory is transitory. Yet the speed of action, the intricacy of trails, the detail of mental pictures, is awe-inspiring beyond all else in nature.
Bush points out that indexing systems and rules do not duplicate the human mind - we must convert our own mental associations to a form we can use to search them - but that the human mind works by association. I extrapolate from this the idea of hypertext as a model of how the mind works. I'm going to keep an eye out for other instances of this idea.

You want ethics of networked knowledge? Think about that for a minute — how much time we’ve all spent arguing, promoting our ideas, and how little time we’ve spent contributing to the general pool of knowledge.
This makes me think of Pierre Levy's collective intelligence, its 90s cyberutopianism, the ways collective intelligence is around but how it's harder to find in the stream.

Four dimensions of design opportunities are presented to overcome thosechallenges and barriers towards improving connected learning in library buildings and other free-choice learning environments that seek to embody a more interactive and participatory culture among their users.
Significance
-
The results provide insights into factors that contributed to HTEas a social, interactive and participatory environment for learning – knowledge is created and co-createdthrough uncoordinated interactions among participants that come from a diversity of backgrounds, skills and areas of expertise. The insights also reveal challenges and barriers that the HTE group faced in regards to connectedlearning.
Findings
-
This paper reports on findings from a study that explored implications for design of interactive learning environments through 18 months of ethnographic observations of people’s interactions at“Hack The Evening” (HTE).
