Enormous Excitement

I have read through the material about Web 2.0 and the 23 things, and I am both excited and impressed. Hooray for Maryland and any other state/region/county/city participating. According to Raymond Kurzweil (Google this and find out about him if you don't know him already), the rate of technology advancement is exponential-exponential (figure that one out), which means it gets faster at an ever-increasing rate (in layman's terms). As human beings we can choose either to let the wave pass over us and continue on down the beach, leaving us lying there in ignorance, or get on our mental surfboard and see where it all leads us. It'll definitely be someplace exciting.
