Connection,

She was sitting there in the doorway of an Estonian home built perhaps 800 years ago, ignoring the rain, intently staring at the screen of her Apple PowerBook. I'd like to think she was having a conversation with someone in a far off place.

But this juxtaposition of a computer in the old part of Tallinn somehow seems to me to tell the story that Global Conversations will try to tell, about how social media and culture are colliding, with the results creating things that surprise us a great deal.

Not only that, but I really like her boots.
