definitive is a guy from New York, New York, USA
I truly believe in empowering people for change in the world. I am a nomad and world traveler at heart, but I yearn for a home... (trust me this oxymoron/predicament/paradox is tough to live with) I love big cities and being around lot's of people, because for some strange reason I feed off of that type of energy being around me. I spent my life living overseas (let's see I'm 3X now...left the states when I was 3...came back when I was 18, left again for a short time in my 20's...) if I do the math....I am not sure I am even an American anymore...but....yes I do have a US passport ;-) I am totally passionate about social networking, social media, and social content...and more importantly doing it in a green and sustainable way. And currently looking for work :-)

Social Media's Second Law: it's a Verb, Not a Noun |...
Rated • 1 review • internet • centernetworks.com
From the page: "The second law of social interaction design is that the functionality of social media is contingent on social practices that use them. Notice that there's a double contingency there. Social media functionality is contingent on use by users; use by users is contingent on the technologies required for use to be possible. This double contingency means that social tools are inseparable from the users, and the use by users inseparable from the tools. It is not a matter of which comes first, or of how technologies structure interactions, for interactions shape technologies. And as all of us in the "beta" community know, social media design is iterative because it constantly observes its own use." -

From the page: "The web has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to evolve and leave embedded franchises struggling or in the dirt. Prodigy, AOL were early candidates. Today Yahoo and Ebay are struggling, and I think Google is tipping down the same path. This cycle of creative destruction â€" more recently framed as the innovators dilemma â€" is both fascinating and hugely dislocating for businesses. To see this immense franchises melt before your very eyes â€" is hard to say the least. " -
