One of the key points made in the web lecture on Pervasive Communication Environment is that "time and place no longer constrain a group's activities." This is particularly important to me, because of the activism that I take part in. For example, we have organized rallies across the state with one meeting, and many e-mails, text messages, phone calls. Another example of this is President Obama's campaign; he used all of these mediums to gain supporters and volunteers for his campaign. For the first time it was as easy as checking e-mail to advocate for a particular candidate.
It is also important to note that we need be careful not to lose the physical interaction part of communication. In my opinion, this is very important and imperative to developing a healthy sensitive society.
