We-Think: the power of mass creativity: Charles Leadbeater April 23, 2008

"In his new book, We-Think , Charlie Leadbeater explores how the web is changing our world, creating a culture in which more people than ever can participate, collaborate and share ideas and information. But participation is not always a good thing: it can just create a cacophony and as the web changes to become more collaborative it leaves users open to invasions of privacy.

Join Charlie Leadbeater at the RSA to consider one of the defining battles of our time – the struggle between people who want to freely share – music, films, ideas, information – and those who want to control this activity, either corporations who want to make money or governments who fear debate and democracy."

Chair: Matthew Taylor, Chief Executive, RSA
