jeff lebow

i met Jeff because of google + hangouts..
when a hangout and the coop collided.

been following some of his ustreamed hangouts...
the other day, one in particular, on mooc, Jeff said something to this effect:

the other guys in the hangout were giving him a hard time of his geekiness.. like - how much superppower can Jeff take on.. and that they hadn't even tapped into his capabilities in facilitating conversations on hangouts and ustream chat... etc.

Jeff said.. that's what i do.. i bridge things.. when i see conversations going on in different places, i can't not try to bridge them.
(go to the july 27 edmooc ustream to hear for yourself

that's huge.
that's the huge element of what we're after.
in essence.. that's a huge piece of the definition of innovation.. connecting ideas, unlikely ideas even..


posting it again because this site is huge http://jefflebow.net/

also - adding facets of people to circles
