Sharing your precious memories
How can we create easier ways to share our experiences with friends and family?

Sharing and viewing pictures and stories electronically is both economical and convenient. It is by far the easiest way to share photographs and stories.

I prefer traditional ways of sharing photographs and stories with family and friends. It's important to spend time and share on a more personal level.

Andrewww thinks: Old school sharing versus New school sharing resulting in mass creativity

­>The internet, mobile phones and digital camera’s have dramatically changed the way and the frequency we capture and share our daily doings and interests.

Cap­turing and sharing experiences is so cheap and easy to do now a days that we seem to overload each other with it. Has this explosion in quantity has countered quality?


<­/p>

Take YouTube, Flickr, Delicious, Myspace and other examples of ‘broadcast yourself’ platforms. Any- and everybody is broadcasting experiences. The snapshotting culture has resulted in a new form of ‘mass creativity’ there are some pretty wild things going on online at this moment.

One of my favourites`examples is ‘Mia’s own song’. A young girl films herself playing guitar and singing a song in her at home in her bedroom. The movie is posted on YouTube. Several days later a drummer has recorded a drumriff and merged this in to Mia original video and posted the result on YouTube. After a while other musicians do the same and soon a full pledge composition is co-created online.
