Internet's Dark Secret: It's Made of People!

Like 'Soylent Green,' the mysteries of the Internet are easy to unravel when you realize this: It's people. The Internet is made out of people.

Twitter, Facebook, search engines, websites, video, monitoring software...

The point of all of these tools is to help people connect and communicate. You've got to fulfill the expectations of the people on the other ends of these tools for them to work for you.

So don't be overwhelmed, intimidated or turned off by the technology. And conversely, don't make it all about the technology. Make it about the people. (Just don't actually turn the people into food. That's not supposed to happen until 2022, the year in which the film, Soylent Green, is set.)

But do add Soylent Green to your Netflix queue, and while you're at it, add SNL's the Best of Phil Hartman, who could impersonate Charleton Heston like no other before or since.
