Starting in a few hours is Outside Lands, a massive three-day music festival in San Francisco featuring a pretty insane line-up of great artists like Radiohead, Beck, Tom Petty, Devendra Banhart, M. Ward, Wilco, and dozens of others. (Boing Boing TV is on the scene so stay tuned!) Also debuting at Outside Lands is CrowdFire, a central social media hub for people at the concert and beyond to upload relevant photos, videos, blog posts, and audio and share it with everyone else. I'm proud to say that CrowdFire was created by BB's band manager John Battelle and his team at Federated Media! The way I see it, CrowdFire aims to create a cultural commons that bridges the real and virtual world, and the artists and audience. In the end, it should result in a living collective memory surrounding the event. Congrats John and FM! Participate at Crowdfire
