Christine Herron: The transparency of being online is similar to that of a small town

Christine Herron likens the new lack of privacy were experiencing on the Web to a very small town mentality. By going online and the transparency that comes from going online, she says, you're getting some of the transparency that you had in a small town culture, or that they still have in small town cultures, only we're having it everywhere.

In this video interview, Christine Herron talks about how new online networks are allowing us to adapt to the radical disappearance of privacy with Ideas Project, a new website brought to you by Nokia. Ideas Project is an online space that provides a new way to interact with thought leaders and their big ideas about the future of connected communications.
