The internet is a tool

The internet gets a bad press. Some of it deserved , some not.

I was discussing the internet with my doctor today. Bottom line is that the internet is a tool and as a tool it must be used with discernment ; used wisely.

It is easy to become addicted to the internet and to go into " zombie mode " as I call it . BUT it is also a fantastically useful tool that can be used creatively.

I've already discovered its benefits; fantastic source of information the equivalent of a world library,communication,blogging , emails, a medium for creative self-expression...

How has the internet changed your life ?
How do you use this tool ?

FLYING: CONFESSIONS OF A FREE WOMAN, which premiered at the International Film Festival of Amsterdam (IDFA) and the Sundance Film Festival 2007.

"Confessions of a free woman "

http://www.flyingconfessions.com/about_Brief.php

What does the modern woman want? Where does she fit in today's world?"

Never before in our collective human history have so many women had such autonomy to construct a life of their own creation. Yet, the terrain is still rocky and 'choice' does not necessarily bring happiness, let alone freedom. Meanwhile, old models of femaleness still haunt women everywhere.

In this six-hour tour de force, FLYING: CONFESSIONS OF A FREE WOMAN, master storyteller Jennifer Fox lays bare her own turbulent life to penetrate what it means to be a free woman today. As her drama of work and relationships unfolds over four years, our protagonist travels to over seventeen countries to understand how diverse women define their lives when there is no map. Employing an ingenious new camera technique, called "passing the camera", Fox creates a documentary language that mirrors the special way women communicate. Over intimate conversations around kitchen tables from South Africa to Russia, India and Pakistan, she initiates a groundbreaking dialogue among women, illuminating universal concerns across race, class and nationality. Part delectable soap opera, sociopolitical inquiry, and narrative experiments, FLYING sweeps us up into an addictive international adventure chronicled with sincerity, innovation and elegance.
