Some Things Don't Change...

One of the biggest things about web 2.0 is the ability to share everything - from the basics of cooking a pie to how much money you make a year. Facebook has become a verb, and we can't imagine what we would do without our cell phones and email. Recently I went to a conference, and in one of the works shops was about how animal organizations can use Web 2.0 to their advantage. One of the speakers kept referring to a guide she had made for people, and assured everyone she would email it out to everyone that wanted it. Looking at her blog, it appears that it has turned instead into one of those reminders that sometimes we rely too heavily on technology; her hard drive had what is referred to as a "dismal failure" and the file was lost. While it used to be losing a piece of paper that would throw us off for the day, that too has been replaced, by hard drive failures and spyware.
