An interesting straw in the wind

If you get excited about where social media might take us all, you'll probably enjoy this post by Grumblemouse: San Fran torch relay is a social media extravaganza. The notion of a guy helping to organise a protest in San Francisco by watching a livestream of NBC and sending updates via Twitter, from his kitchen in London, is pretty cool, I think.

I was thinking before the riots in Lhasa Johnnie that it wouldn't take much for me to catch something on film and have it out and over the Great Firewall of China before anyone knew and then I see this happening. Interesting times ahead Johnnie. I'm sure of it.

Hey dude

thanks for passing this on - I really feel we're moving into a whole new Neuromancer situation now - William Gibson 1.4 perhaps?

Anyway hoping to come and participate in the gaming chat on wednesday.
