You may have read my 3 part-series on Culture By Design. The final installment was published just last week.

Roger Hockenberry. Many times when I speak at conferences I talk about how each of us is now two people. There is first, the analog version of our self and now, with increasing emphasis and importance, our digital self that is leading more and more of an independent life without us. The Analog Self.
