The library community is highly networked. Particular segments of the library community are more strongly networked. They talk a lot, go to conferences, read the same publications, email, and so on. I wonder are the theses of the Cluetrain Manifesto more applicable to such a community than to some others? See the 96 theses on the [Cluetrain](https://www.cluetrain.com/?ref=lorcandempsey.net) website. An example: “12\. There are no secrets. The networked market knows more than companies do about their own products. And whether the news is good or bad, they tell everyone.”
