But, what if

we looked beyond

Think of our

world as a small

part of a larger

universe

A universe with billions of contributors

Imagine the universe as the social web

Each “star” with its own voice

Connecting and sharing

Sometimes self-organizing

In June, 1,463,632,361 people were on the Internet.

Today? More.

Technorati is tracking 112.8M blogs and 250m pieces of tagged social media.

There are over 175,000 new blogs every day.

Bloggers update 1.6m posts per day... 18 updates per second.

August 26, Facebook announced its “First

100 million members.”

1+ million Twitter accounts. 200,000 active per week posting 3 million tweets/day.

Who are the Edglings?

kids, professionals, grandmothers, CEOs,

hockey moms, students, tech geeks,

quilters, teens, athletes, media,

horse-lovers

All that unites the cohort is a browser.

How are the edglings working?, I wondered....
