D56: The Future Needs a Big Kiss

D56: The Future Needs a Big Kiss

“The Future Needs a Big Kiss,” is just one of the many hits U2 sang throughout the more than 2 hour concert last night. Three of the top 10 trending topics last night from midnight to 2 am EST were related to the U2 global universal webcast on YouTube. There was even a guest appearance from space! For the first time since webcast’s of worldwide events have started, I actually had a clear image and audio the entire time. Impressive.

More impressive is the long history of U2 and their string of successful hits and political and economic activism. Last night was no different. Their commitment to transforming their look, message, and music is stellar. One final thought I had as I turned off the concert near 2:30 am was that I want to be as good as they are at what I do.

Since it was past midnight and technically today, I couldn’t resist taking a few photos (of my computer screen) for today’s image of the day. Not stunning imagery, but it’s the message and the memory behind the image that make it a winner for me.

Manual: Page 21—The Memory Buffer. Didn’t even know that there was a count of the images my camera can hold in memory. Learned something new today!

Images: Viewed images of the U2 webcast online. Wanted to see what photographers live at the event were able to capture.

    I am so jealous that you got to go to a U2 concert.

    Well, watched is a better term. I saw it along with the rest of twitterdom via their live performance on YouTube. You didn't see it?

    I have been so cut off from the outside world… I'm busy

    Oh don't worry. I'm not cut off at all and I still didn't have a clue it was happening!

    I about died when I thought of you being this close to Bono (and there was a wave of jealousy – I won't lie). But then I read you were watching it on You Tube like I will. Oh, to really be that close.

    To be that close to Bono would be amazing. I'm not generally star struck, but I've admired him since junior high. Seeing and hearing him sing brings out the middle school girl in me. :-)
