Ha!! Oh FFS. The Internet is KILLING OUR CULTURE. And it’s going to eat our children, too. This is some of the best high-minded handwringing I’ve heard in a while… and it’s all so *familiar*, too. (Via Joseph.)

Amber, hi. You made that casual comment at my first (and so far only) NetSquared meeting; that was shortly after Podcamp. It resonated with me because – as a new player in the blogsphere and Social Media – I’d been wondering how people can spend seemingly all their time online and still have the fulfilling face-to-face part of life. For me, I like the 50-50 mix but probably wouldn’t have had the courage initially to come right out and claim it! Cheers.
I had a feeling it was from the Netsquared meeting! I vaguely recall saying something like that, I just didn’t remember the 50/50 thing. But I like it when I say something smart and don’t even realize it. ;)
