The following is an excellent example of using social media networks in a way that creates positive social change and positive social connections. Ze Frank rose to Internet fame in 2001 with his viral video “How to Dance Properly,” and has been making online comedy, web toys and massively shared experiences ever since.
The video shows several projects he did using social media networks to crowdsource participation.
Some of the ideas are the connection we form between each other via social media networks. One image he showed was how many people in modern times are walking down the street paying more attention to their cell phone than the street-scape around them. While on the one hand it indicates a problem - people disconnected from the real world - he makes a great point that people can find joy in those connections.
It has a very inspirational message for those of us with the vision of using social media to create social good.
