I read something really interesting on Eric Francis the astrologer's blog 'Planet Waves,' about this very subject. It also fits in with my research report about our use of technology and social networking sites. He also writes for 'Sasstrology' which is where I discovered his writing.
Eric quotes Neale Donald Walsch 'Your present technology is threatening to outstrip your ability to use it wisely. Your society is on the verge of becoming a product of your technology rather than your technology being a product of your society. When a society becomes a product of its own technology, it destroys itself.”

This led me to thinking about facets of my earlier research, how the internet can work for us as human beings on this global network. It seems that sharing is the key theme. A worldwide network of generous folks who want to serve and share their knowledge.
I was drawn to Tara Gentle's blog, a very inspirational and creative writer. http://www.taragentile.com/ 'You don’t make money from your passion. You create the opportunity for commerce around the way your passion inspires you to serve others.'
I also wanted to share these links and some amazing photographs. http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2011/12/lee-jeffries/ 'this is colossal' courtesy of Les Bicknell our tutor http://lesbicknell.blogspot.com/
