 Greetings,

    The Economist recently published an in-depth piece on mobility and its
effects on everything from work and family life to language and kids. (It
also quotes Pip and describes Coburn Ventures' virtual habitat.)

On autonomous nomads, the article quotes Paul Saffo, who says, "anybody who
works for himself has a tyrant as a boss." Right on.

With the special report's author, Andreas
Kluth<http://www.yi-tan.com/wiki/yi-tan/andreas_kluth?wikiPageId=1386170>,
let's discuss:

   - What social effects have we seen so far from the technologies of
   mobility?
   - How have these effects changed business? What opportunities have
   they created?
   - Where might these forces be headed?
   - What happens to privacy? Our sense of time and place?

As always, an IRC
Chat<http://www.yi-tan.com/wiki/yi-tan/irc_chat?wikiPageId=163280>will
be available during the call,
here.
