The Internet With A Human Face | Beyond Tellerrand 2014 Conference Talk | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Marc [Thiele] emailed me a few weeks ago to ask if I thought my talk would be appropriate to close the conference.


"Marc," I told him, "my talk is perfect for closing the conference! The first half is this incredibly dark rant about how the Internet is alienating and inhuman, how it's turning us all into lonely monsters.”


“But in the second half, I'll turn it around and present my vision of an alternative future. I'll get the audience fired up like a proper American motivational speaker. After the big finish, we'll burst out of the conference hall into the streets of Düsseldorf, hoist the black flag, and change the world.”


Marc said that sounded fine....
