As we digitalize, upload, cast, and migrate our lives in ever more digital ways, we are walking a line. The technology that we develop and that develops us can connect us to our environments, or with it we can raise walls of 1s and 0s. Will iPods drown out the sounds of passersby on the subway in the morning, or will podcasts link us to the social, political, spiritual, environmental, and economic developments in our neighborhoods the world over? Will we homogenize cultures, or will we appreciate difference through exposure? Our neighbors are no longer just the cup of sugar type – consumption, production, microfinance, blogs, gaming, travel of goods and people connect us all. Amid change, some things are constant. We need dialog. Here we have created one forum as we move forward together.
Welcome.
