you know, as much as i bitch about digital technology and consumer culture, i have to say that i am happy to live in a world in which responses to the earthquake in haiti can be so instantaneous, multifarious and global. i feel really inspired by all the different grassroots aid movements that have sprung up within minutes of the news' transmission (transmitted across an array of social networks), and the general feeling of a call to arms and a responsibility to the global community. dear world, i am proud of you. this has been a message from the internet to the internet.
