FBK

The thing with F(ace)B(oo)K for me is that is accelerates communication, creating this frantic environment where I feel like I need to KEEP UP or be left behind.
Wait!
I have more to say, or I want to read more than the 150 words allowable, or there are 3 links I want to share but can't, or I don't 'like' something, or , or ,

David Orr writes quite wisely

mere information can be transmitted and used quickly, but new knowledge is something else. often it requires rearranging worldviews and paradigms, which we can only do slowly. instead of increasing the speed of our chatter, we need to learn to listen more attentively. instead of increasing the volume of our communication, we ought to improve its content. 
[the nature of design]

So search foodgrows on the FBK thing, but for what it's worth I enjoy the relative slowness of this blog form, though with that said I much prefer working in the garden with you in order to prepare a meal to share. The most detrimental aspect of the adaptive technologies (ipods, fbk, cell phones, ....) is that they help make inhuman realities human. We're enabling ourselves to live in harsher and harsher places. Social deserts. Spiritual deserts. Don't forget to fill the world with meaningful experiences. (or is that the other way around?)
