I don't consider
any online forum a
GroupMind for one major reason - the participants are not controlled by the
GroupMind, and many can even be lying to the
GroupMind. Insects, the main example of
HiveMind or
CollectiveIntelligence, are limited by the fact that the colony
will enforce conformity with expulsion/death. --

Ian Stewart and Jack Cohen have a word. They say "Extelligence" to mean a physical manifestation of intelligenne - something that requires intelligence to make, and to interact with. A book, a puzzle, a computer. Intelligence and Extelligence, they claim, are locked together in a feedback loop.
Is wiki Extelligent? --
