Hilary: I hope folklorists will always collect from people in person. Nothing beats that. I see the Internet and other forms of new media, though, as a great resource for getting in touch with people initially or just for discovering what's out there. I've also come across a couple of examples of singers putting their songs on YouTube and then other folks adapting them via the folk process.
I heard a song written by an IWW songwriter called "What Shall We Do with the Starbucks Bosses?" on YouTube...It was written to the tune of "The Drunken Sailor" and I noticed that folks had adapted it to other situations and put it up on YouTube as well. Very interesting.

Sian: I love the term Warm Body Interface...Gonna have to remember that? Are the Henry Girls and The Foxhunt still around? I'd love to talk to them about their experiences using the web to rehearse together.
