Looking forward on September 11, 2006 by revisiting two key American Revolutions–that of 1776, and that of the Concord Transcendentalists, America’s first bloggers, perhaps

Tom Morris and I spent the day walking and talking blogging, technology, and two American Revolutions. And of course we both feel we are in a great new revolution now–from the citizen philosopher/soldiers of the 1770s, to the citizen writers, poets and activists of the mid 1800s, to the global citizens of today.
I have become fascinated with video blogging. Tom and I videoblogged all afternoon long. Check out the result here, at my videoblog on blip.tv. And by the way, blip.tv is the best software I’ve used in a very long time.
Here are our videoblogcasts, one by one:
| The shot heard round the world 1775
|
| Looking down on the Old North Bridge

| Henry David Thoreau grave in Concord Cemetary, Concord Massachusetts, 1862 |
