New Paradigm, social networking, Web 2.0, Wikinomics

Last night I left my red knapsack, with my white MacBook inside, in the back of a taxi cab. Needless to say, I’m a little upset. But the thing that is so frustrating about it isn’t the possibility that it might have been stolen (by another passenger, the driver, someone at the taxi cab company), its the possibility that it is, even now, in the hands of some kind soul ... read more

In the last 20 some odd years corporate security has made some headway. Companies are now at the point where they are reasonably efficient at keeping hackers' out and letting employees in. The problem is that to get to this point the enterprise has had to put up walls in the name of safety and security, but at the cost of functionality and logic. The current Jericho model of security ( ... read more

A little while ago I wrote a two-part series called “Looking into the blogosphere through a sporting lens” (part 2 is here). The purpose of the series was to look at some questions underlying a Costas Now program, which itself was supposed to be an insightful look at the role of the blogosphere in relation sports reporting. While the video itself devolved into something ... read more

An interesting BBC piece on Gartner's Vice President of research, Jeffrey Mann, who discusses the huge opportunity lost by businesses who fail to embrace social networking tools. "But you have to look deeper as to why these people are using these networks. It's to keep up with their friends, to mobilise them, to get involved in everything from politics to cleaning the local park. If you look at those reasons, ... read more

We started working on a graphic, which I’ll happily “open source” for anyone’s input or for re-purposing. Just send me a note and I’ll invite you to the shared space we are working on at Vyew.

The Washington Post ran a short article last Wednesday about Facebook blocking ads from direct competitors like MySpace and Friendster, but not from companies like Microsoft, AOL, Google and Yahoo, among others. Most interestingly, Facebook blocks ads from Jam3, a start-up whose product allows users to "send and receive text messages for free while you are online, and then route them to your phone when you are offline)." read more

BSG Alliance, my employer, changed its name to nGenera (en-gen-ER-a) this week. I really like the new name and logo. Because we’ve grown so fast (acquiring 5 companies in less than a year), it was important to mash-up all the humans under one single identity and brand. I’m sure someone in my company will correct me if I’m wrong, but I think it was ... read more

This bugaboo of a word “social” is the irritant with social software in the enterprise. Social just has too many negative connotations in corporate circles from socialism to socialites. I once heard from a Wall Street executive that he was no longer permitted to use the word “social” when describing 2.0 opportunities. It made senior management uncomfortable. Similarly, if there is more ... read more
