Technoleads: What can I do with the technology now?

I agree wholeheartedly that collaborative tools and environments are creating a paradigm shift in how communities aggregate information, proliferate knowledge.  Can information professionals step forward to promote good practices in this area? 

The traditional library science curriculum includes training in critically evaluating information sources.  To what extent can these skills be applied to a collaborative environment that seeks to encourage broad participation? 

Food for thought after reading the Fortune article by David Kirkpatrick, "Cellphones as Change Agents" http://www.fortune.com/fortune/fastforward/0,15704,1139670,00.html 

(Can anyone remind me?  Wasn't there a story about civilians organized using their cellphones for purposes of civil unrest?)
