Our most respected institutions of knowledge - encyclopedias, newspapers, even libraries are under challenge ? they are crumbling. While we don't know exactly what will replace them, it is becoming clear that knowledge is changing its basic shape. Which isn?t a story about print and broadcast versus the Internet, but rather about knowledge taking on the properties of the Net itself: super-abundant, unsettled, messily ordered, unrespectful of credentials, without borders, wildly connective, and un-masterable. \nIn this talk, we will look at the networking of knowledge in science, education, and more to see the opportunities and dangers when knowledge can at last scale up to a world that has from its beginning been too big to know. Will our understanding be able to keep up with our knowledge? How much will Big Data help, especially if it's also taking on properties of the Internet: linked, messy, and always in contention? Will we even recognize what knowledge is becoming?
