I agree that the landscape is changing, but as Gregg points out above, the (ir)relevancy of the internet to specific industries is not going to change anytime soon. I think that really all social networks are doing hiring-wise is encouraging nepotism in larger companies and helping like-minded individuals find each other and create start-ups. That's it. If I need an IT consultant or a new project manager, I'm not gonna ping people on Linked In, I'm gonna call Dayak, have them post to job to the recruiting boards for me, and let the CVs and resumes come in, high tide or low.

It would certainly be nice to see more organizers becoming conscious of these issues. I enjoy music festivals a lot but the large ones generate so much waste it isn't funny. Even a place as energy-conscious as San Francisco leaves their beloved Golden Gate Park littered year after year (although I have noticed improvements lately). It will be interesting to see how the actions of these individuals meet their assertions, above.
