Collaboration ,Photon Blockade and Entanglement

I'm just experimenting in this blog with memes that I have come across. Until I hear back from www.abc.net.au/rn I can't upload short segments taken from abc podcast but I live in hope. To get started though have a go at this, if anything describes the benefits that are emergent from cooperation watch below to catch Howard Rehingold's vodcast on the rise of collaboration from www.ted.com.
[there's another ripper embedded in last weeks science show, the blind mens socks riddle, hope to bring it to you sometime but if your interested just go and listen to the entire incredible podcast at : http://www.abc.net.au/rn/scienceshow/

I'd like to include 'tasters' from ABC radio National that are whole chunks of information taken straight from their original podcasts. As such any ABC/rn stuff you hear would be unmodified by me, and I would use only selected contextualised chunks. [a full segment in grammatical and intellectual terms]
The concept I want to develop for passing this media around to my friends and collaborators is what I call taste-full.
I give you guys a taste, and provide a link to the full podcast. Be aware though that downloadable podcasts are currently only kept on their server for 4 weeks after broadcast.

Right then, I think there's a charming symmetry between and among the following 3 memes and I'd be happy to discuss this with any of you that have the time to listen to them:

Virtual Earth: Lawler @ Microsoft

This ties in nicely with how we are developing our Augmented reality tours. This and the preceding post [J Haris, metaverse weaver] allow the reader to explore in greater depth the ways in which we can express ourselves with Web 2.0 tech.


Cool tools to enhance our projected propriocentricity.

Hi, have a go at this, I am intrigued [but] not sure whether to be frightened, petrified or reaching for my soma.
