"This all left me wondering – what if? What if there was an open pipe,
both up and down, that could handle all that traffic? What if everyone
who came to the show knew that pipe would be open, and work? What kind
of value would have been created had that been the case? How much more
data would have populated the world, how much richer would literally
millions of people’s lives been for seeing the joyful expressions of
their friends as they engaged in a wonderful experience? How much more
learning might have countless startups gathered, had they been able to
truly capture the real time intentions of their customers at such an
event?"
"But I also like to take a minute here or there to connect to the people
I love, or who follow me, and share with them my passions and my
excitement. We are becoming a digital society, to pretend otherwise is
to ignore reality. And with very few exceptions, it was just not
possible to intermingle the digital and the physical at Coachella." - John Battelle
