  A comment on Conversation: Does Mark Zuckerburg deserve a Nobel Peace Price for social media?

  Nov 9 2012: No, not yet.
  
  However, the potential is there.
  
  Zuckerberg created an awesome platform for positive global awareness and potential change. A world that is becoming increasingly connected (online) has potential for great social change. Seamless sharing of ideas by humans of all colour, creed or kind is surely a good thing. (Albeit cutting through Facebook advertising messages)
  
  Social media is here to stay. Only time will tell if Mr Zuckerberg deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

• A comment on Conversation: What is the future of Internet and Social Media

  Dec 8 2011: "The best way to predict the future is to create it" So, let's get busy creating our social-media-internet futures!
  
  My prediction includes:
  
  1. People's online & offline identity becoming more singular
  2. People consuming media more socially & intuitively as a result of sharing.
  3. It will be more geared towards people, personalities & relationships.
