Today is OneWebDay
Most of my Saturday is an offline day, but there needed to be one blog post because today is a special day, OneWebDay. "OneWebDay The Web is worth celebrating. OneWebDay is one day a year when we all - everyone around the physical globe - can celebrate the Web and what it means to us as individuals, organizations, and communities. As with Earth Day - an inspiration and model for OneWebDay - it’s up to the celebrants to decide how to celebrate. We encourage all celebrations! Collaboration, connection, creativity, freedom. By the end of the day, the Web should be just a little bit better than it was before, and we’ll be able to see our connection to it more clearly. OneWebDay is September 22 every year, starting in 2006."
Connection between people is one of the key ingredients in my life that has been dramatically changed by the web. My world has expanded and become global through these dancing electrons. But it has also touched my family. Last week one of my blogging friends, Denise, blogged about my parents in Healthy Aging: Retirement Communities or Assisted Living? on Blogher. Who would have ever thought! I blogged a wee bit about my parent's transition planning. A friend online picks it up, interviews my parents and then blogs about it herself. We all learn a little bit more.
The connection is magical.
