The document is about an upcoming Chicago New Media Summit being hosted tonight. The purpose is to promote and coordinate the June 5-6 summit, invite people to join the founding New Media Council committee, and to meet others who share the vision. The summit can be compared to the TED Conference in sharing ideas about technology, entertainment, design, science, art and other industries. Collaboration on projects like Wikipedia, Linux and YouTube represent a new stage of human organization according to a Harvard Law professor, by disrupting traditional economic production.
