It was asked, how do you reconcile network era fluency with real social life? Here is my response:

I see social literacy as having real social relationships, whether they be face to face or online. It's about connecting to other people. Without real relationships, with feelings, emotions, and all that goes with them, then communities (geographical & distributed) will not have the collective capability to deal with network speed change. Therefore, I see that individuals who are contributing members of communities have better social literacy. Communities that encourage social learning have better network literacy. It is only through communities that individuals can manage in the network era, IMO.
