SXSW 2009 Film Trailer: We Live in Public

On the 40th anniversary of the Internet, WE LIVE IN PUBLIC tells the story of the effect the web is having on our society as seen through the eyes of the greatest Internet pioneer youve never heard of, visionary Josh Harris. Award-winning director, Ondi Timoner (DIG!), documented his tumultuous life for more than a decade, to create a riveting, cautionary tale of what to expect as the virtual world inevitably takes control of our lives.

Wow.

I want to see this for of all the insane stuff that went on. But the trailer leads you to believe Harris is still something he's not: relevant. What he showed is that people are voyeurs. We knew that, but he showed it live. It's the pop version of the Stanford Experiment. If he predicted anything, it's bad reality TV. As did many others. The real story is how he burned thru venture $ & flamed out in a big way. He now runs a small network in Ethiopa. He was a 'big deal' for a very short period.

Great movie...go out and see it and then try to figure out whether you're going to live of the grid or in a cage, a well documented cage

That's technically wrong as, when you made that comment, you hadn't seen mine yet.
