Wikinomics
2009-02-02 14:23:00 Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything by Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams describes how the mass collaboration enabled and encouraged by Web 2.0 technologies (including wikis, blogs and the gynormous open-source software movement) is fundamentally changing the way business is conducted. In the beginning communication was one-to-one, or few-to-few. The advent of mass media (publishing ...
Wikinomics vs. The Cult of the Amateur
2007-12-17 22:38:00 vs. I have just finished reading two very interesting, both totally opposed books on the Web 2.0, citizen journalism and mass online collaboration. The cult of the Amateur is by Andrew Keen, an Internet entrepreneur who has decided that far from being a force for good, the internet is in fact having a very ...
Bridging the Digital Divide in Kingston - e-voice.org.uk
2007-11-02 10:46:00 Once in a while, I come across an organisation that I just want to help promote/publicise. Well, this morning, I learnt about e-voice.org.uk To quote from Guarav Patel, who told me about it (on a Ubuntu list.) (Apologies to those who are reading this blog entry ON the Ubuntu Planet syndication site, and already know all about ...
Wikinomics
2007-10-09 20:34:00 I’d say I’m reading Wikinomics, but the reality is I started it this morning on the train and decided it required way too much brain power for a Tuesday masquerading as Monday. Nevertheless, I like the idea behind the book and it’s dovetailing well with some of the work I’ve been doing lately: tracking social media/alternative ...
Wikinomics: verso un'economia fondata sulla collaborazione
2007-09-18 11:18:00 Si è tenuto a Berlino il 10 ed 11 Settembre, l'IDC European It Forum, per fare il punto sullo stato dell'arte delle nuove tecnologie in Europa e del loro impatto sul mondo del lavoro futuro.Dal convegno è emerso che l'internet di seconda generazione (il cosiddetto Web 2.0), che si appresta a raggiungere la sua terza fase, inizia a modificare sensibilmente l'economia mondiale con paradigmi figli della maturazione delle generazioni di navigatori, dei sempre più sofisticati strumenti software utilizzati e della sempre maggiore velocità con cui le informazioni si diffondono in Rete.La collaborazione di massa, la nascita di reti sociali, lo scambio peer-to-peer, le licenze di copyleft, hanno dato vita a fenomeni rivoluzionari quali l'Open Source, che ha modificato l'economia del software e Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia online creata dagli stessi utenti.Una delle voci più autorevoli che si è distinta durante il meeting è stata quella del professor Don Tapscott divenuto famoso in...

Yes, there will be a market crash (for both technology stocks and property)
2007-08-03 11:27:00 Yesterday, I was involved in two separate conversations, both of which ended up being about market crashes. Firstly, I’d been asked to record a CD about property investment mistakes for Nightingale Conant, and one of them was buying in the wrong way for where we are in the market cycle. Then, I was drawn into the debate ...
Wikinomics: Being open, peering, sharing and acting globally
2007-05-23 19:41:00 Recently I finished reading the book Wikinomics. I wondered whether it is just another buzzword or if it contributes to the discussion of how the Internet changes our world. In any case the authors left some answers open to be written by the readers themselves. After reading the introduction I was fascinated to read how Dan ...

Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything
2007-02-22 00:44:01 Recommended Reading: Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything by Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams Book Description In just the last few years, traditional collaboration?in a meeting room, a conference call, even a convention center?has been superseded by collaborations on an astronomical scale. Today, encyclopedias, jetliners, operating systems, mutual funds, and many other items are being created by teams numbering in the thousands or even millions. While some leaders fear the heaving growth of these massive online communities, Wikinomics proves this fear is folly. Smart firms can harness collective capability and genius to spur innovation, growth, and success. A brilliant guide to one of the most profound changes of our time, Wikinomics challenges our most deeply-rooted assumptions about business and will prove indispensable to anyone who wants to understand competitiveness in the twenty-first century. Based on a $9 million research project led by bestsellin...
