    Tech Community?

    Most of us - myself very much included - live according to the conventional wisdom that technology drives us indoors, onto little screens, and away from each other. It has long been blamed for the fact that people have fewer friends, go out less, and generally don’t have as many interaction “irl” (“in the real world”). But is technology really inherently isolating, or is it just that we’re using it wrong? In this episode of All Around, I try to find out. I visit regenerative village in Portugal, focused on communal living, that is co-owned and co-financed through blockchain. That’s right: the same technology that powers bitcoin, NFTs, and all manner of cutting edge tech. In other words: they make the case that technology can create, rather than destroy, community.

    Social Media: Yay or Nay?

    Today, we ask a simple question. Deceptively simple, in fact: social media, yay or nay? While some of us see brain rot videos as a harmless outlet, others blame social media for most ills in our society. Two stories today to answer this question. One by someone who absolutely loves being understood by the social media overlords, and another by someone who has decided to ditch social media altogether.

    Everything’s Political

    This week, “Everything’s Political”: two stories about the way that technology is inherently political, shaping how we engage with it, and how it is conducted. In the first, what happens when a bunch of people ask a chatbot who they should vote for? In the second, how social media shapes politics, told by someone who thought she wasn’t being political.
