Hyperlocal is People and Technology
An interesting synchronicity (dare I say even a synergy?) presented itself in two different firefox tabs while catching up on my rss feeds the other day.
In one tab, Andrew McAfee arguing that sometimes “It’s not not about the technology”
In the other, Jeff Jarvis arguing that “Towns are hyperlocal social networks with data (people that is)”
At first glance this might seem like a debate waiting to happen: McAfee arguing that he’s growing weary of hearing people say “It’s Not About the Technology” and Jarvis saying “It’s Not About the Technology.” But if you look at what both are actually saying, a synthesis makes more sense.
