How to use the Internet to get people off the

Internet

People are unpredictable.

‘Communities’ are just people with a reason to talk to one-

another.

You can belong to more than one.

It is a fluid concept.

Why would I care? Why would I share?

Overcoming Loneliness

So how can we use the Internet to get people off

the Internet?

Food Court ‘Community’.

Grow it Local ‘Community’.

“Crazy” works

Pretty helps

Tell stories

Abandon rules

Fun is requisite

What the hell? Gardening? Composting?

Worms! If I knew all this latte-pinko-leftie-hippie-

greenie stuff was so much fun I never would have

have let it in!

WOW! A HORSE, WHAT FUN! What Present! I’ll take it.

“If you want to subvert the

dominant paradigm, you have to have

more fun than they do

and

let them know

while you’re doing it” Ed Gillespie, Founder of Futerra.
