Ok, I admit it, even I need some time off every now and again. So, during my Thanksgiving break, the amazing Sean Platt met with my One Click Society radio show guest, digital media entrepreneur, Matt Edelman to talk super heroes, super digital relationships and super new ideas:
I think the interesting thing about how the world
has changed is that human interaction is almost always now
predated by digital interaction. So, when you meet someone, if
you have had any communications with them before meeting them, I
would say the majority of the time, it’s not even by phone. And
you’ve likely researched that person or the company they’re
working with to learn much more about them than you ever would
have known 10 years ago, 15 years ago before meeting them. So,
there really is a different starting point in every personal
interaction than there ever used to be…..One of the biggest
challenges for media companies in the last decade has been
trying to keep consumers trained in the way that the media
companies always took for granted. That’s not something that has
worked out so well for the record industry, for example.
It’s been an enormous challenge for the film business. It’s
becoming perhaps an even greater challenge for the television
business. And then when you get into the news category or the
sports category, the media companies in those businesses
typically made money because they reached consumers almost
entirely through television, and they were paid in one of a
couple of different ways to do so. Now, if they don’t provide
that information for free to consumers, they’ll lose their
audience. So it really does depend on the category, and
consumers migrate to the lowest common denominator in terms of
barriers to get what they want.

On my radio show, One Click Society, I had a chance to talk with my friend Coach Laura Rubinstein about the power she receives from what we call, feminine energy. Surpirse! It’s not just for women-it’s there for everyone to capture and use to enhance their businesses, their relationships, their lives…
“I started doing things like writing five things every night that I
was grateful for in the world about myself. And then five things that I
could acknowledge about myself. Because if anyone is like I was out there,
being very hard on themselves and critical of others, then it’s really hard
to access that gratitude. But if you start recognizing things and looking
for things that you can acknowledge and praise. So I started writing down
five things every night that I could acknowledge about myself, which was
really hard. I used to have to say, ‘OK. Well, I like my fingernails.’…’I like my nose, or I like my thumb.’ Something like that. It had to
start somewhere, but it’s amazing what happened. It was like magic, and I
had ultimate power in my life once I got that I could start praising myself
and giving thanks for things that showed up. Even if it was a flower in the
concrete between the sidewalk slabs that I got to see because it’s got this
pretty yellow color. And I was so grateful I got to see this pretty yellow
color that I just adored, and I can generate joy because I just saw that.
Once I started doing that, people started giving me stuff, and manifesting
was really easy. So, you hit upon one of the most powerful forms of
feminine energy there is, which is gratitude and joy and really amping that
up.”

Recently on One Click Society I had a down-to-earth conversation with Nova Spivack who has been to the edge of space. He talked a lot about the Semantic Web and the future of search and social media. Very cool stuff!
“I worked at Thinking Machines which made, at the time, the most powerful parallel supercomputer in the world. One of the things they were doing there was a lot of different simulations, artificial intelligence type simulations of the brain, as well as all kinds of simulations of physics and emergent computation. A lot of the stuff that I did there and just the exposure I got to all these different projects that were working on artificial life and emergence really helped me think about the early days of the Web. And I ended up building there, before the Web started, I built basically their own web. It was a multimedia hypertext database of all the different projects on all their Thinking Machines installations around the world that you could browse. It was very much like the Web.
And then when the Web came out, in the early days it was actually Gopher before the Web. In those early days, I realized hey, this is a platform where you can do this kind of thing. So I think that kind of thinking launched me into that. I had also done a lot of work on neural maps and other kinds of systems at other companies. I worked on information filtering at a company called Individual. So I was pretty familiar with a lot of these concepts, which then came into play as the Web began.”
