"Two years ago it would be implausible. Five years ago it would be impossible.
But if it turns up in the news tomorrow would anybody be shocked?"
There is a story attached. Almost true story that in five minutes tells us about the increasing power of social networks and a breathtaking way from the very near future.
YouTube. Twitter. Ustream TV. The hottest thing in Internet in last few weeks - ChatRoulette. Again Twitter. Flickr.
And all the behaviors we do practice on Internet. Creating content. Commenting on content. Sharing things. Remixing things. Calling for action. Going for action. Flashmob. And then, almost always - action going unexpected way.
The video (performance) is one more proof on how connected we are already and one more sign of increasing power of social media. And besides of that it makes me think again on what makes storytelling great in multi-media age. It is not anymore just about telling the story.
