Despite a large amount of time spent by the roadies adjusting things beforehand, once the music begins, each player has to listen to the feedback and make adjustments. Examples of the shots people got were fairly readily available on Flickr and on YouTube (not how close the shots below are to the stage).

The bottom line is that most people do four or five things on computers: email, internet browsing, accounting, multimedia (video and music), and office applications like word processing.

In reflection, I've been thinking about how much richer it is being social - how you don't have to know all the answers when you have a good network (and a decent Internet connection.) It made me think about another digital divide - for those who don't have the Internet connection or haven't yet engaged on Twitter - the knowledge divide.

We finally arrived after 8 hours on the road, documented with my treo cameraphone and emailed to flickr. What is really cool is that I was able to set up the treo as a modem and get high speed Internet access from here. Watch the video. VOX is easier to use, but my Dad would prefer something free like word press. What do you think?

By letting other nonprofits use your words, pictures, music, innovations, and processes, you are creating resources to help those most in need! Google, Flickr, Second Life and literally thousands of new companies depend on engaging users to make money, and the more people who engage with their content, the more money they make.

I was pretty doubtful about the general usefulness of content-less social networking sites (as distinct from those that are content-driven, like flickr and del.icio.us ) but it seems that Facebook is becoming a platform, and has ceased to become simply a social networking site.
