The Digital Manifesto - thoughts for a new beginning
Warning: The revolution will not be televised.
But it will manifest itself on the web, in the form of highly creative, dynamic, experiential, immersive and involved two-way conversations featuring user-generated content across a wide spectrum of interactive disciplines, from websites and user experience design, to desktop widgets, social media and virtual worlds.
The revolution will not be televised, but it will change the way we work, play, educate, entertain and interact with each other and the world.
These are the words that have been playing in my head of late as I contemplate and make a decision on where my career goes next. What will be my next challenge
Before we explore that question let’s take a step back and look at the view from thirty thousand feet, I have always been involved and in fact thrived at the cross roads of marketing and media From the heady days of print to the first steps of modern day virtual reality I have always been there, always thrived and always road the bleeding edge. Its time for me to take all that knowledge and experience and put it to work not only for large corporations and brands, but for those causes that seek to do right by the world. Its time for me to step up to the plate and make a difference
So please come back often, I hope to make this blog a venue for the free flow of ideas and I will always have something new to share with you dear readers, some insight, or opinion, and in keeping with the idea of 2 way conversation I encourage you to comment. if you agree let me know, if you disagree, challenge my assumptions ( politely please no trolls or flamers) I enjoy a good dialog/debate and hopefully you will too.
Up coming items will include the creation of The Digerati, an invitation only forum of the best and brightest minds in interactive and social media from all walks of life from politics and and not for profit to consumer branding and entertainment. Like the Technorati and Illuminati before them this group will be be free to discuss the issues of the day and how they relate to social media and the world at large.
Well thats it for now, stay tuned for more news and opinions from the front lines of The Digital Revolution
