London & Blogs

What just happened in London is horrible.

I think that one of the main reasons people kill each other is because they don't understand people that are different from themselves which in turn makes them scared, which in turn seems to make them do horrific things.

My hope is that blogs will eventually lead to a better understanding between people of different nations, different skin color, different whatever. If people start communicating directly then they will hopefully gain a better understanding of each other's perspectives and they'll end up not being scared of each other.

And people will stop blowing things up, invading other countries - they'll stop hating each other. Maybe some day we won't even need borders anymore - we'll just be citizens of the country 'Earth'.

Blogs, Podcasts and video blogs might just be the best thing that has ever happened to us.

    Hey Chris,

    I totally agree... to get a better understanding of one another, to try and alleviate tensions, whatever they might be. There is no better way for individuals to voice there feelings than Blogging, Vlogging and Podcasting.

    We have the tools.

    Yes Chris and Max,

    as every individual sees it different, all those blogs are different points of views, and for all those views is enough of hard disc space, there are the greatest discussion between bloggers wich physically never met, there are ideas that could change the world. The inventors of Blogging should get the Peace Nobel Price !
