Information Ecology

Alternate reality games dictate what is and is not important in the unending deluge of information — what gets points and what doesn’t. What falls outside of or challenges the story of a given game is not so much disputed as ignored, and whatever fits neatly within it is highlighted.

The world has an information engine. If you can find the right "streams," or the right community, you can improve your own thinking by exposing your ideas to that specialized engine (regardless of whether you're right or wrong.)
