Since 2005, Ria Sharon has been working and playing in social media, connecting with like-minded individuals to forward causes, businesses and friendships — not necessarily in that order. In 2011, after a year of diving deep into its conceptual development with fellow blogger, Jen Lemen, and synthesizing a range of technical skills, Ria launched HopefulWorld.org, an online classroom of global wisdom for modern learners that offers online classes and digital products for people who are ready to consciously create their best lives. Ria is ever hopeful about the ways that technology supports our need for human connection and blogs about technology on Babble Mom.

The Future of Connectivity and Why Mark Zuckerberg Didn't Invent Facebook
Thanks to the imaginative and scrupulous writing of Nate St. Pierre earlier this month, we can see how Facebook (at least, in concept) could have been invented by Abraham Lincoln, complete with profile picture, personal info, status updates, and shared material.
