I have been familiarizing myself with DS106 and Twitter over the past couple of weeks, and it is truly amazing, but I did not watch Jim Bloom's "Ed Parkour" lecture until today. Through this lecture I really learned what DS106 is about. It's about everything and anything interesting and creative. Free and open, sometimes with complete disregard for purpose, intent, or rules.
