We have been given a multi-billion dollar communication infrastructure. What will we do with it? These were simply accompanying slides for a talk I gave at TedxUOregon http://tedxuoregon.com/ Eventually the video will be available so they will make more sense. Essentially the point was that the new media forces, unlike the old controlling forces, have liberated us. So why do we still deliver other people's messages to other people's audiences with other people's money. We have the creative power and know how to do things on our own. We can influence brands, drive social innovation, start new companies, invent new models. What are we waiting for?
