We are pioneers in one of historys great events. We now have the potential to connect our images, sounds and written words to every being on planet Earth. This democratization cuts across all traditional lines--of nation, religion, race, language and gender. Theoretically, the result is equal opportunity for all. Those with passion--who wish a broader education, want to be part of something greater, or merely need to proclaim their presence--ensure the Internet is here to stay. The Internet is the New Frontier of friendship--of brotherhood and sisterhood. An instrument of understanding, it holds out the promise of a more peaceful world. The Internet will eventually penetrate every house, hut, tent, igloo, bungalow, saloon and bunker worldwide. Like the Wild West, early lawlessness will be brought to order and tamed. Machine translations will let everyone know whats happening. As guardians of the new order, we must try to keep the hucksters at bay and the bad guys out. We also need to neutralize those big players who would manage the menu. Apart from the nascent commercial bonanza, creative people are suddenly swapping photos, paintings, poems, pedagogy and paradigms. A new blog floats into the blogosphere every second, a new idea every nanosecond. Without even getting into your flivver, you can now see what others in the Great Electronic Art Club have done in the last half hour. A tune composed in Perth, Australia, is immediately whistled, hummed and committed to an orchestra in London, England. Today, the lone artist rides with a hundred thousand others. The message of the medium is the competition is tough and getting tougher. And quality finds friends. And different folks from different lands are not so different after all. Our Global Village is learning to share. -- Robert Genn
