Musings 1000 Monkeys Clicking Cameras A resurgance once again in the local press about the wisdom, or lack of it, in crowds. I’ve posted here about this a little, and that was added to very eloquently by Chris Saad of Particle who pointed out that media is additive. There is place for both wise
Musings The gatekeeper Vs. the storming hordes Bernard Lunn commented on my last post  that when it comes to Enterprises and Start-Ups, we are thinking along similar lines.  His second post on his blog B2B media 2.0 and globalization is a well thought out discussion along similar lines, but with some minor differences
Musings What start-ups should know about Enterprises… …and why start-ups should want to play with them. Chris commented on my “Are you hearing me? Who needs a new metric post?” regarding my position that an Attention gathering standard (and more specifically an Attention Engine) would be ideal for Enterprises. He made the valid points that
Musings Are you hearing me? Who needs a new metric? Chris posted on the need for a new metric which could supplement traditional page-view metrics.I’m going to add to the call-to-arms from the Enterprise point of view. The ability to understand not just what people click on, but the attention they give to elements of the new,
Musings The Rich — Poor Vs. the Poor — Rich. I’ve had my Nokia 6233 phone for about 6 months now. Recently I’ve been wanting to buy an iPOD, but couldn’t really justify the extra gadget just for heading to work and back. Anyway, in conversation with someone at work, they mentioned they’d been

I was sent the following by a friend with the above title, I’ve tried to source it, but while many have quoted it (here is one), I can’t find who to attribute it to. Originally it referred to programmers or web designers. Although this is the first time
Musings Syndication in the Enterprise — it’s not all about you The pressure is on to find an RSS / News solution for the Enterprise. But it’s not coming from the users (I think this is because users that want RSS just install their own client anyway).Every time it’s been raised internally in the last couple of years
Musings Digital Narcissm: Is blogging playing with yourself? In the real world where people don’t live on-line 24 hours a day, with their internet connection at least as vital as Oxygen, I regularly come across people who display some unusual traits. 1. They don’t blog. 2. They don’t read blogs. 3. They often read “papers”
Musings Top 10 ways to spot a Web 2.0 site In trying to explain Web 2.0 to work colleagues and explaining why it’s different from Web 1.0, I’ve created this easy to use “spotters” guide of features based on the reading and research I’ve been doing. It’s a bit tounge in cheek (not your

Musings It’s a large scale, device agnostic, messaging routing system, stupid… I’ll be the first to admit that some times I just don’t “get” it. As part of an ongoing quest to understand lifestream tools and what they are about, I was investigating Twitter and wondering why the need to “broadcast” the trivialities of my life was actually important,
Musings Organisational Oversteer I want to discuss Innovation and in particular, how you can destroy it very effectively in my next article, but before I do I need to explain my own concept (I should note at this point it’s probably not a unique concept, but it’s my own words and

Musings Anti Innovation Touchstone popped this up from the blogosphere: Every company innovates until it finds a cash cow. At that point only innovation that supports the cash cow is promoted. Further, any innovation that threatens or does not support the cash cow languishes or is actively killed. Eventually, most of the true
