-This theme – the paradigm shift that I want to focus on as no one else seems to be going so – has been roaming around my files for several months, not getting written because it is too intricate.
+This theme – the paradigm shift that I want to focus on, as no one else seems to be going so – has been roaming around my files for several months, not getting written because it is too intricate. This is a reminder note to myself, and also an invitation to any readers to prompt me to writing more about any of the below.
-One good way in is to recognise one of the key features of contemporary life: **information overload**. There is too much information in so many ways, and it has even been weaponized to keep people from having a clear-headed view of what is going on in the world.
+One good way in is to recognise one of the key features of contemporary life: **information overload**. There is too much information in so many ways, and it has even been weaponized to keep people from having a clear-headed view of what is going on in the world. But the implications are so great that I've finally decided that I can't write about them all in one piece.
+Let me start by cross-linking to other [[t:terms|themes]] of mine.
+  - [[t:Belonging]]: there are too many opportunities for belonging — many groups believe that bigger is better, so they reach out for more members. It may be hard to decide.
+  - [[t:Connecting useful knowledge]]: I wrote about the knowledge deluge on [[2022-10-13]].
+  - My theme [[t:Knowledge Serving Commons]] is closely related: too much information without clear guidance and pathways is confusing and unhelpful.
+  - My theme [[t:non-possessive collaboration]] is linked in many ways. It's a vital part of the new paradigm I want to see.
+Then, a few months ago, I wrote down several topics that can also be related.
+  * The contrast between narcissism and love (including  [[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%2013&version=NIV|1 Corinthians 13]]).
+  * Web (and wiki) page design: how to be most helpful.
+  * Left and right hemispheres of the brain: how the dominant left hemisphere gets overwhelmed or confused or misled without active collaboration of the right.
+  * More helpful social media: how we could improve on the likes of LinkedIn.
+  * The connection with personal relationships is touched on in my theme [[t:Relating in collectivity]].
+  * The positive possibilities in intellectual life of connecting people with similar ontologies.
+  * The role of the "mycelial" connector.
+  * Fractal cooperation vs competition.
