A New Year Indeed
While you are sitting there trying to figure out where to leave a message for your friend – her cellphone, her Facebook page, her email, her landline (if she still has one), a letter (do you know her physical address?), her IM, Twitter her? think of this, technology which is something that can make me howl like a feral cat sometimes because it is overwhelming, mind boggling, and disruptive, is equally as fascinating, hyper enlightening, and new.
If you haven’t already ready the book I recommended a while back, that Clay Shirky wrote on how the internet is changing our lives, Cognitive Surplus, watch this video clip and see just a hint of what the book contains. It’s amazing how he has cut through all the first layers of technology to uncover something about humans that they don’t know or have forgotten about themselves.
Love this guy!
