Actually I'm more reporting than responsible for the paradigm, but I am now involved with a client more familiar with the Edge work originating from <a href="http://mitsloan.mit.edu/faculty/about/malone.php" rel="nofollow">Tom Malone</a> and <a href="http://mitsloan.mit.edu/faculty/about/henderson.php" rel="nofollow">Rebecca Henderson</a> at MIT. Interesting though, the linkage. It's oft been said that inventions occur simultaneously in many places at the same time. The blogging social media revolution now comes from the fact that we now can see, and begin to coordinate all those places. Dion Hinchcliffe has one of the foremost reputations in Enterprise 2.0. You might be interested in <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/Hinchcliffe/?p=101" rel="nofollow">this article</a> where he talks about the edge. Thanks Sergeant.
