Start Weaving: Pointed Bernie DeKoven to Deborah Schultz, and her presentation at the Next Web conference on the topic “Communicating in the Relationship Economy.”

Inspired by Deborah’s words Bernie writes on CoWorking.com:

“I read:

“We don’t think about HOW we exchange information with our mailman or if this relationship is REAL or how deep. It just IS. The same can [sort of] be said about the online world. The difference [a very big difference] being speed, geography and quantity.”

Yes, I say to myself, yes. All these people I’m somehow connected to. No, connected WITH. Just by being a “friend” or “follower” on Twitter, or a member of the same mailing list. We are in relationship. And the relationship is just as real as my relationship with my neighbors. Just as real.

I read on.

“HOW we behave in this new hyper-connected universe and the skills we need. I call it WEAVING - where the medium is the relationship. We weave between networks, blogs, IM, Skype etc.”

Yes, again, all these different technologies, like the warp, and these different people, like the woof.

Funny words: warp, woof. But they describe the tapestries of Life 2.0. As we reach further and deeper, weaving together each separate human strand, virtual and actual, using each separate human technology, we create the wholeness of our personal truths, the completeness that is the very fabric of our being”.
