G.ho.st
Afternoon All,
The NYtimes has a very interesting article up about a web start-up called G.ho.st.
G.ho.st is interesting for two reasons. Firstly, they are working on a site that you can sign in to and access not only your desktop, but any programs and software you've got, and use it from any PC.
Secondly, half of the team working on G.ho.st is Israeli, and the other half is Palestinian.
“We are doing something across cultures and across two sides of a tough conflict,” Dr. Schreiber said. “I was prepared for the possibility that it might be difficult, but it hasn’t been.”
Communication as a method for growth and understanding.
A thought that's both revolutionary and as old as sand.
Here's the article: NYtimes - Israelis and Palestinians Launch Web Start-Up
An interesting thought just popped into the ol' head:
Few celebrate the building of a wall.
Everybody celebrates when one is torn down.
Thoughts?
