Interesting Article when looking at how to create common places that appeal to both sides of the brain. It got me thinking about how to appeal to different learning styles in the education arena. Additionally, It got me thinking about how i always envied left brained thinkers rather then embraced the fact that I'm really a Righty. Thank God for freedom! Right Brain People Unite!

I heard this on NPR as I was driving and couldn't help but think of this week's reading from Smart Mobs. The text discusses the role that cooperation plays in human society, that if we were designed to spread out genes without regard to others, that cooperation would have been "bred out" generations ago. This story shows that cooperation, or at least social interaction based on valuing the needs and goals of others, does seem to be uniquely human. Networked collaboration isn't the result of technology - it's the result of basic humanity.
