The Internet Is Made of People
summary
A daily creative experiment runs for 2,293 songs and still posts each day to YouTube and Vine, winning a Microsoft jingle contest and triggering Apple used the song to open the antenna press conference — Steve Jobs even danced in the wings. Concrete tools: daily deadlines, simple video gear, green‑screened “Everything Man,” contests and social comments. The payoff is measurable virality and countless one‑to‑one connections that numbers don’t capture, and the project keeps working.
