What I’ve Learned About Garden Blogging This Year #7

The Internet and the Networking of modern life is moving faster than I thought. I’m no visionary but rather a practical writer trying to fit the modern reality into a publishing or information-exchange kind of business.

It’s like trying to put a printing press on quick-sand. You just never know what part is going to sink next… or how fast.

So what would I bet on?

Human nature won’t change. We’ll still want our food, our friends and we’ll find out joys and sorrows much as we have in the past millennium or five.

Our needs to connect as human beings won’t change.

The technology and it’s impact is in its infancy. Of course it’s going to change. In unexpected ways.

If our modern life is about creating a working network, then we can expect advances in this area. We’ll network the printing process, we’ll network our food supply, our travel, our production methods - we’ll network every facet of our lives. We can see the beginning stages of this now as we line up the interfaces for Web 3.0 and the interconnectedness of all system.

This of course presents some serious opportunities and concerns for all.

But the biggest question at the end of next year will be to ask how’s your network? You’ll have an off-Net network and an on-Net network. And what are you doing to encourage that Network and keep it alive and well. Are you taking out of it or are you giving into it?

Bottom line on this post. I’m not sure where the Network is going. I’m not sure where the concept of publishing is going. But I know that it’s a darn exciting ride.
