I started reading tweets from all over twitter and it looked like he passed away indeed. I updated my FB status immediately and read an article about the tragic incident.
After few minutes CNN stated that Jacko was still alive, hospitalized in coma. CNN is a pretty important source of trustful information so I thought that maybe someone spread wrong unofficial information.

An hour passed and the official statement came. The collective mind which produced the trending topics was right.
So this is a good example of how this kind of swarm intelligence works. I'm sure that we will witness many other examples of it: of how it works and the wonders it can produce.
On another note: let's appreciate more life and the ones we love, admire and have in our lives. Time is precious.
