I'm still at the stage where I'm struggling to articulate what my new book will be about.. I was talking to someone at Lunch 2.0 today who was eager to hear about all the social media companies I'll be seeing in my upcoming travels. It dawned on me that each company is a tree, and I really want to talk about forests.
The forest is made up of trees some of which are magnificent, sme growing at awesome rates. others are stunted and are getting blocked from the light and others are just dead, slowly decaying back into earth.
This makes them interesting, but I', interested in the bigger picture. I'm interested in the organic, living shape-shifting thing that is the connected world. Yes, I am among those who regard it as a living thing.
It is the impact of the whole entity that the book will address. That and how it will impact for better or worse the people who will be living in this forest a few years down the line.
