We people are facinated with freedom. Especially when we feel that there is lack of it, and then when that lack of freedom applies to this particular individual.
It becomes easy to manipulate mass of people once you show them that they are deprived of some freedom. You only need to advertise it. And then watch the ball rolling. Politicians know this. Revolutions happen when there is critical mass. There is always that one individual that represents need for revolution a role model of a person.
If situation allows forces for things to happen – revolution will succeed. People will celebrate – we love it. We have gained new freedom.
Such new freedom will last only this long – until we realize that our system of living did not change much by applying this freedom. We will live and seek another freedom to achieve.
For ones in power agenda will be different. They would need to control newly achieved system. With more control it comes to dictatorship. And some freedoms get limited by control. A new freedoms needed to be achieved.
Then we iterate process yet again.

Broadband becomes standard. It use to be only for first world countries, but not anymore. World is catching up.
When I started ISP in 1994 I have noted that we’d need bandwidth enough for quality internet services. It took time for public use internet to go away from dial-up. Broadband may be sufficient today for average use but in many cases it is not enough. I do not see that we will have soon successor of broadband. Some technologies make slow penetration.
I stumbled upon this software via mind map sent to me from friend of mine. Did not know from the design which site it was. Then I slowly researched internet in seeking what it may be and then I found site where one can download wordpress software. Did not feel installing it at first and wanted to check what this system is offering in terms of functionality. Thus i have signed up here to see how platform works.
It is by far not first software I have seen for making web logs. But sounds fun and useful and I am thinking of using it more often and implementing it elsewhere where i find it suitable. For some strange reason WordPress logo reminds me of VolksWagen sign. Maybe it is intentional but also it creates some sort of good feeling too.
It is completely unknown to me what I could write here. So this serves as disclaimer.
