A few days ago, Zócalo Public Square asked me for a short answer to the question, "What do we need to do to help the Internet connect us to others in a more meaningful way?" It was prompted by their recent accouncement that Ethan Zuckerman’s book Rewire was getting their book prize.

Today, my response, along with answers from David Weinberger, Kirsten Foot, and Bradley Fidler, are up. Excellent company to be keeping!
