[This is an edited version of the talk I gave last fall at the State of Play conference.] I'm sort of odd-man-out in a Games and Law conference, in that my primary area of inquiry isn't games but social software. Not only am I not a lawyer, I don't even spend most of my time thinking about game problems. I spend my time thinking about software that supports group interaction across a fairly wide range of social patterns. So, instead of working from case law out, which has been a theme here (and here's where I insert the "I am not a lawyer" disclaimer) I'm going to propose a thought experiment looking from the outside in. And I want to pick up on something that Julian [Dibbell] said earlier about game worlds: 'users are the state.' The thought experiment I want to propose is to agree with that sentiment, and to ask "How far can we go in that direction?" Instead of looking for the places where game users are currently suing or fighting one another, forcing the owners of various virtual worlds to deal with these things one crisis at a time, I want to ask the question "What would happen if we wanted to build a world where we maximized the amount of user control? What would that look like?" I'm going to make that argument in three pieces. First, I'm going to do a little background on group structure and the tension between the individual and the group. Then I want to contrast briefly governance in real and virtual worlds. Finally I want to propose a thought experiment on placing control of online spaces in the hands of the users. - More at http://www.shirky.com/writings/nomic.html

Exit Strategy


Exit Strategy 05/25/2004 01:33 PM
Exit Strategy How to get out of the quagmire that is Iraq:
To implement this exit strategy, we will have to practice running quickly. It is further recommended that, while running, the eyes be cast down, to avoid witnessing any last-minute people trying to kill us. We will have to establish excellent communications so that the moment that final person begins dying, we can all begin running quickly at the same time, eyes cast down, quickly, to our vehicles, to get to the airport and get out of the country.

I would begin letting the Iraqis know now that we are planning on turning most of their country back over to them as soon as they have elected a "legitimate" government and that we arbitrarily accept the unlikelihood that the January elections will yield such a thing.... Of course the Iraqis, or more precisely, the Iraqi Arabs would be none too keen on it, but there is a good chance they will already be too involved in civil war by then to have much energy for re-taking a well-defended Kurdistan.

Exit the MATRIX


Exit the MATRIX 02/10/2004 02:51 AM
Jane Black at Businessweek Online reports that more than half of the states that signed up for the MATRIX law-enforcement database have quit it. The Multistate Anti-Terrorism Information Exchange lets the police draw on multiple databases to create instant dossiers on, well, anyone they want. Here are Jane's conclusions: There's no doubt that MATRIX raises privacy red flags, though after an extensive briefing by the Florida Law Enforcement Dept., which is spearheading the project, I believe that it's little more than an efficient way to query multiple databases. The real furor over MATRIX demonstrates something much more important — and...

Exit Interviews by Gallup


Exit Interviews by Gallup 03/13/2003 10:14 AM

Marybeth is skeptical about a call she got from Gallup, ostensibly to conduct an exit interview about her leaving MSFT.  It could very well be legitimate.  I blogged about this two years ago, and I still think it's a good idea; especially in cases like Marybeth's, where the employee is otherwise hesitant to be candid.

On the other hand, just because someone has your phone number and claims to be from Gallup doesn't necessarily mean that they are legitimate.  Not everyone who cold calls me at home is a criminal running a scam, but I don't feel like I've missed out on anything special by acting as if they are.

~

Marybeth's story and some of the responses in blogland have spurred me to collect my thoughts on the topic of "difficult work situations".  I've written about the subject here in the past, but would like to post something more comprehensive.  Hopefully soon...

Afterwards, a few audience regulars told me they thought it was our funniest show ever.
