Clay Shirky on Love, Internet Style (via azspot)
I told Clay’s Shinto anecdote in a talk at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality. The gist is, there’s a lot we do online in community as an act of love. It’s mostly invisible, but we do it. It’s squishy to talk about, but we do it anyway.

(And we’re also enjoying the outcome of our first argument over a programming language. Of course something open source won — is there any other choice? We’ll introduce our first programmer in just a bit.)
