Telephone poles are the original community billboard. I cannot imagine a more perfect metaphor for local<\/em> social media. “Lost dog”, “Garage Sale”. As our communities grow increasingly decentralized, these distributed post-boards have become essential to local free speech.<\/p>\n

As much as we’d prefer to bury the lines and clear our sky of wires, these old-tech telecommunication infrastructure were co-opted by the local community and pressed into service to help neighbors talk to one another.<\/p>\n

Given that digital communication is going to slowly make these obsolete, we should capture the benefit they unintentionally added to our communities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
