Let’s talk about us...May I remind you that you have now been in that bath for over three years?*

*Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams

http://www.douglasadams.com/dna/19990901-00-a.html

“We are natural villagers. For most of mankind’s history we have lived in very small communities in which we knew everybody and everybody knew us. But gradually there grew to be far too many of us, and our communities became too large and disparate for us to be able to feel a part of them, and our technologies were unequal to the task of drawing us together. But that is changing.”

How to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love the InternetDouglas Adams

http://www.douglasadams.com/dna/19990901-00-a.html

“Interactivity. Many-to-many communications. Pervasive networking. These are cumbersome new terms for elements in our lives so fundamental that, before we lost them, we didn’t even know to have names for them.”

1) everything that’s already in the world when you’re born is just normal

3) anything that gets invented after you’re thirty is against the natural order of things and the beginning of the end of civilisation as we know it until it’s been around for about ten years when it gradually turns out to be alright really.

How to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love the InternetDouglas Adams

http://www.ted.com/talks/clay_shirky_how_cellphones_twitter_facebook_can_make_history.html

“These tools don’t get socially interesting until they get technologically boring. It isn’t when the shining new tools show up that their uses start permeating society. It’s when everybody is able to take them for granted.”

Clay Shirky
