Synthetic Stream

Really interesting TED talk about the trend which is going on through the internet during the very last years: giants like Google or Facebook assume what is more relevant for us in a very flat and algorithmic way and show us just these results, hiding the other ones.
It's not a conspiracy or a terrible plot hatched by someone to control the public information, it's just marketing...but it's influencing the way through we access the daily news. We have to reflect about it.

Here you can find both the TED talk and the article of Eli Pariser on the Observer (italian translation for Internazionale)
