Though a crisis for most big business, we believe it is a special opportunity for small business.

Each of these industries is getting into the other's business. Competition is already fierce and it'll get even tougher. The media will have a field day. Yet, this convergence is impacting everybody, especially the media, and every one is profoundly wondering what the future holds for them.

The game has really changed and it is changing even further.

We've all been innundated with the stupidity of so much that is on the web and that has been delivered by email. Yet, we all have also marveled at the overnight billionaires who have thoughtfully crafted a site that virtually creates a new industry overnight. It has become quite apparent that small groups have special advantages and that being big stifles creativity and spontaneity. We all understand how "faster and cheaper" is possible, but being "better" requires new insight. And here, the future is being defined within real relations (a sense of belonging and participating) and shared, core values. Here, the important people become the people within a community who know how to create jobs, create wealth for many, and try to make the world a better place.

Media pundits -- always looking to report on the bad -- often encourage the bad, confuse the marginal, and weaken the strong.

For most of the media it takes too much time and insight and money to make the good news truly interesting, yet that is yesterday's thinking, especially in light of these converging industries. First, digital workflow makes it easier for everyone to begin crafting and contexting the positive. Second, with the constant growth of competition, small, highly-focused populations are better than large populations of unattentuated couch potatoes.

If our culture is to recover from the past 30+ years of lifting up nasty people in the news and as subjects of so many television and cinematic dramas, it is time for a change.

It is the time for all of us to focus our attention on airwaves that lift up and explore that which is truly important to our future -- positive role models.
