Biosat
Biosat or Bio-sat: (Introduced by Andrew Lauckner in 2010, short for BIOlogical SATillite): A person who spends there existence or available free time using communication tools (ex. Smart-phones, cell phones, digital cameras, or other devices with camera,video, and/or GPS-enabled tracking firmware and/or software) to record real-time events as they occur. This may be as simple as a gathering of family or friends for a afternoon cookout, a rock concert, or a major news event (such as a weather phenomenon, public criminal action, or visit by major public figure). Some people do such actions to record their place in time at that location for sentimental value. Others may do such actions with the hopes it will go “viral” (meaning to become an interest piece for the mass-majority of a certain media form, most common, an internet site such as youtube.com). Despite the benefits of recording an event by various mediums, many find themselves caught in the the moment, spending more time dedicated to recoding the event than witnessing the event first-hand, thus gaining more satisfaction on the popular response to the recorded event than the event itself.
