This is why the Internet is important: Inheritance Jewelry
My friend Danielle makes really awesome jewelry. And now she has her own website, Inheritance Jewelry.
OK, granted, the website could use some work design-wise, but it’s still early days, she’s new to this world…
This is what Web 2.0 REALLY means to me, why it’s REALLY important.
It allows a young woman like Danielle to follow her dreams, without having to take out a loan, without having to sign a lease with some rich landlord in some expensive neighborhood.
This is why the web needs to stay open…
Go, Danielle, Go! Rock on.

“Souls Need To Be Touched”
Thanks to Kathleen Warner for ordering the gapingvoid business card above.
I’m passionate about the idea that a business card should be more than just a way of handing out contact details, but a social object that states what you believe in, what you stand for.
Exactly.

Facebook is The New Suburbia
This cartoon was inspired by Matt Mullenweg’s very moving post over on GigaOm, “Open Web FTW”. He’s right, the web needs to stay open, WE need to stay open:
For a year now, I’ve said scripting is the new literacy. That’s something I strongly believe. In Douglas Rushkoff’s latest book, he talks about “program or be programmed.” That is, if you’re not in control of your inputs, you’re not really in control of your outputs either. You’re just a reactionary force.
[NB. gapingvoid is created on WordPress software, Mullenwag’s company. I’ve hung out with him a couple of times. A lovely fellow.]
