Shift Happens

After reading Terri's blog, I wanted to find out more information about how many people were actually involved in this online 'community' phenomenon, fueled by the likes of Facebook, MySpace, and Bebo. In amongst the multitudes of personal sites, blogs, and forums that have spawned, I stumbled across a little gem. Created by Karl Fisch under the title, "Did you Know?," and more recently redone as a YouTube slideshow by Scott McLeod, called "Shift Happens," this plethora of information should overwhelm you, as it did me.

"Shift Happens" touches on some of the most talked about subjects of our generation. As you read this blog, you are participating in the fastest growing form of communication in the world - within the next day you will be likely to: write an email, converse through an Online Messenger, update your personal community site, and search Google.
The way that we are embracing technology is unbelievable and the scariest part is, we have no idea what we will be able to achieve in a couple of years. Bring it on!
