Inspired by the recent Catholic New Media Celebration<\/a><\/strong> in Atlanta, I’ve decided to upload the audio from a presentation given last year by Sister Judith Zoebelein, FSE, who was the webmaster of the Vatican’s website<\/a><\/strong> when it first appeared in 1995. In February of 2007, she spoke at a LIFT conference<\/strong><\/a> in Geneva about the use of the internet in creating virtual and actual community. She has many insights into the way in which the internet is being used, and how it can either increase isolation or foster actual relationships. The New Media Celebration in Atlanta was a great illustration of how a virtual community can become actual\u2026 and will, I think, bear good fruit for the new evangelization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
