Unfortunately I could not make it to this year's Monaco Media Forum because of another speaking gig so I am now watching some of their videos via their Youtube channel. So far, this one is the best: USC Annenberg Professor Jeffrey Cole's keynote on "The State of the Mediasphere". Jeff presents his keypoints very clearly, with great examples, and it is obvious that he has this topic (i.e. the future of content and media) nailed down way beyond most people. Great stuff! MUST WATCH.
Now this is a cool and very useful tool: Finding Twitterstars | keithhopper.com. So says Keith:
"Finding and connecting with local social media 'superstars' can be a valuable short-cut for anyone trying to ramp up quickly in online social environments. These enthusiasts are knowledgeable about social media tools, are highly-connected, and understand well how to succeed in the online social environment. But how do you find the local social media superstars? Today, many of these individuals use Twitter. The "Local Twitterstars" mini-application below takes any US geographic search area that you provide and returns a feed of the top five most followed individuals on Twitter who have been recently active in the region..."
I tried it and it works great for non-U.S. too! Latest update from Keith is here Original Yahoo Pipe here (thanks @bentrem)

Fascinating conversation with technology expert, consultant, teacher and author Mark Pesce. Pesce recently spoke at the Personal Democracy Forum in New York, and in this discussion he provides his thoughts and opinions on where we are with web and mobile technology, and most importantly, on its critical social and political impact on us all today. (PS: Blip.TV really rocks I think! - check out my channel on Blip)
One of the best videos on this topic that I have ever seen - lots of great nuggets here.
Law professor Yochai Benkler explains how collaborative projects like Wikipedia and Linux represent the next stage of human organization. By disrupting traditional economic production, copyright law and established competition, they're paving the way for a new set of economic laws, where empowered individuals are put on a level playing field with industry giants.

Good going Terry!
"....The passionate message of music is in the magic of the "song." The more it's consumed, the more it nourishes. Music is ubiquitous; it's a utility like "water," it's not a pair of pants and as such we need to stop treating music like a product that needs to be controlled..."
