Example text

Adding a second layer Social media platforms can become collaborative when they add an additional layer of coordination. ” These mechanisms aggregate the content into a new social object. The new social object includes the metadata of each of its constituent objects; the authors name is the most important of this metadata. This creates two layers of content. Each shared individual unit is included in a cluster of shared units. A single shared video is part of an aggregation of demonstration documentation.

On the other hand every collaboration needs room also to change, and a breathing space which acknowledges the different levels of commitment of its participants, which themselves will vary over time. While an explicit process is no panacea to the problems that arise when we deal and work with others, it can anticipate and mitigate the most damaging consequences when things go awry, whilst protecting the flexibility necessary to adapt. Productive dissent Any collaborative endeavor (paid, unpaid or underpaid as the case may be) risks becoming an echo chamber—a shared space in which participants operate from a similar world-view, mostly agree with each other, and 42 quibble over details and technicalities without being about to raise larger, riskier questions about the work and why or whether it needs to exist.

A relationship to this context requires a coordinating mechanism that is an integral part of the initial production process. These mechanisms of coordination and governance can be both technical and social. Technical Coordination and Mediation Wikipedia uses several technical coordination mechanisms, as well as strong social mechanisms. The technical mechanism separates each contribution, mark it chronologically and a ribute it to a specific username or IP address. If two users are editing the same paragraph and are submi ing contradicting changes, the MediaWiki so ware will alert these users about the conflict, and requires them to resolve it.
