Never mind social media and all that crap, this is why the Web is important

We go on and on ad naseum about how things like social media, Facebook, Twitter are what is important on the web; but seriously people they don’t even come close.

What is important about the web is that is allows people like Andrew Wonder and Steve Duncan capture an incredible part of New York City and then share that with the whole world. They aren’t alone either as there are probably a great many people doing some important and incredible things that we only find out about because the web lets them share it.

This video is a compilation of Steve and Andrew going to the depths of the forgotten New York to the heights of it. I already posted it over at my other haunt, the Inquisitr, but I wanted to share it here as well.

Enjoy, because I know I did and a big thanks to Steve and Andrew; and people like them, for doing what they do and then sharing it with us.
