It's a very vivid scenario: even though he doesn't say so, you imagine a very charismatic, even beautiful woman, enthusiastically grabbing your hand and leading you off at a dash. That kind of welcome would be be a great lead-in to any topic. The Stupak amendment is a perfect example: I was at a party the night it was being voted on, and a very well informed friend (C-Span junkie) came late because he could not tear himself away from the TV. I really had no idea idea what was going on at that point, and so he told me. But he wasn't just some random friend, he's (literally) one of the most entertaining and engaging conversationalists I know; he's someone I'm very comfortable interrupting, he has a gift for making analogies to explain things and for making helpful but non-injurious oversimplifications. He also has some professional expertise in health insurance and the benefits industry. And he knows me really well--he can tell the difference between "she hasn't been paying attention to the news in the last couple of weeks" and "she doesn't understand the legislative process." And so in 15-20 minutes he was able to bring several of up to speed on the amendment, and I've beeen keeping track of that aspect of #hcr based on his context ever since then. Much of that was his skill and expertise (the traditional offerings of journalism) but a lot was his friendship and knowledge of me--the traditional offerings, really, only of good teachers and good friends. I don't know how you can bottle that up and sell it on the internet without either invading privacy. ACLU-N.CA's dotrights.org campaign has made me newly sensitive to the dangers of giving any entity the kind of data that would enable them to build an engine for informed adaptive personalization. If I was confident that m data would be safe from unwarranted search and seizure, and that its caretakers would be liable for its loss, I'd be super enthusiastic about trying to build something to keep track of what I've been reading and my general knowledge levels. As it is, I prefer to search for context actively. The closest thing I can think of are Facebook and email threads where people post articles they're confused by and solicit their social network for help figuring it out. The main problem with that is the interface--even properly tree structured comment threads are hard to organize and navigate for really complex topics. So I'm looking forward to seeing what you have to say!
