That seems interesting

Pulled from Doc Searls today, is his writing about his son, Allen, who is working on a project called GlobeAlive. From Doc’s description:

Read Doc’s “interview” with his son, check out the website and read more about it on Allen’s blog. It seems like a very interesting idea, one that I intend to at least keep an eye on.

    A little bit of knowledge I picked up reading Coercion by Douglas Rushkoff last night. According to him the US is the only developed nation that does not make teaching media literacy a requirement in its schools. That says soo much about the media in this country that I can’t even begin to talk about…

    Yes it seems like every time I turn around there’s something new in this space. Today it’s the preconfigured Virtual Hard Disks available from Microsoft.
