The Naked Future of "ME"

Integration. Systems. Collaboration. Synergy. Specialization. Jack of all trades is fired. Gone! Welcome global village. You can’t eat alone. The world is in my house- wirelessly. Real-time news SMSed from Africa. A riot on a Kenyan street is captured live on a street-side vendor’s Nokia and SMSed into BBC’s newsroom in 23.5 seconds. The rain is moving towards the next village and a neighbor sends text to warn farmers. No gas at station 14- all traffic please redirect. A Facebook group against Mugabe spreads faster than measles- not that both are the same- or are they? Quit holding onto ideas- or ideologies. Sharing is the new personal property rights. Byebye intellectual property rights. Welcome creative commons and open source. I am having lunch at Pizza Antica in Tiburon, CA- check my twitter. I am leaving quite a trail. Invasion of privacy? What are you talking about? Talk exposing your own privacy. I saw that skeleton in your closet on Myspace. But I don’t care. Skeletons are out for sell. Will you buy mine? That’s the naked future of “ME”.
