John: good stuff as always. That fake dichotomy (real world v. online world) I think would make a good starting place for an interesting discussion. Let's do a podcast on this topic this week if we can.
John -- I think you've hit on something here that couples with Peter Himler's thought over at The Flack.
He sees fragmentation as an emerging obstacle for social change, at least through the traditional media channels.
You guys are looking at the same elephant from different sides. (not ends.)
Brian:
I agree ... I do believe there is a definite split between people who live online and those who don't. And it's not necessarily one of education, intelligence, income or other typical divider.
Ike, Peter's post was interesting. I wrote about something similar with the Katrina evacuees in Houston, who didn't realize that Mardi Gras was not a school holiday here. It just gets tougher and tougher to communicate across "mini-streams" as you simply can't reach people with timely information.
Something all of us will deal with at some point or the other, I imagine.
