Rapidly Forming Groups

Social Software

Bill Kearney offers a counter-argument that I find cogent:

The fact that groups can form more rapidly will do more to devalue the ability of any one group or cult of personality. Yes, for those ununsed to the process it will be a terrifyingly vast expanse of rapidly changing groupings. Hang on, it's going to be a fun ride.

Just because groups might more rapidly form doesn't mean that the opinions of each individual member will be changing any faster.
