Digg a pony

Here is another post with no helpful information, sorry, I meant to write a meaningful piece but I am on vacation and in fun spirits :-)

Anyway, I just got reminded of something that crossed my mind before and is now more relevant than ever - the term John Lennon invented almost 40 years ago: "bagism". It's amazing that at the time everybody laughed - a person giving an interview in a bag. You can look this up, or even better watch the video (fast-forward about 2 and a half minutes). Here's a short re-cap:

"if everybody had to go in a bag for a job (interview) there would be no prejudice, you see, you'd have to judge people on their quality within, you know, we call it total communication..."
I think this is really the web: blogging, mash-ups, syndications, and social networks, and why all this is a lot of fun - you really know nothing about the one you are talking to, except what he (she? it?) tells you.

Dig a pony lyrics mention
"penetrate any place you go" (...internet?...)
"radiate everything you are" (...wireless?...)
"imitate everyone you know" (...blogging? syndication?...)
"indicate everything you see" (...search? google?...)
"syndicate any boat you row" (...social networks?...)
Cheers to total communication!

P.S. A tribute to Passover holiday (the reason for my vacation): there were once four boys (ארבעה בנים) - the wise and wicked one, the cute one, the quite one, and the one that can't sing... and they were fab.

I think because of the Passover sacrifice's status as a sacred offering, the only people allowed to eat it were those who had the obligation to bring the offering.
