DSL: Not only has Bell imposed this on their own customers but also on their wholesale resellers, organisations such as Teksavvy, who they have started traffic-shaping, cutting off many of the newest services […]
Below is a copy of an email I sent to Wordpress Pro mailing list addressing the dynamic between information stored in a wiki and knowledge spurred on by conversations in a forum. In it I make recommendations as to why and how to link the two assuming that the community won’t shift to a pure […]
A bit of news - I’ve been asked to be on committee to hold the position of Chair for Demos and Posters at WikiSym 2008 in Portugal this September.
This is great as I’ll not only see breaking ideas as they happen around the world, but also be responsible to evaluate them and help them […]

I received an invite this morning from a system called Quechup from someone I met yesterday at Office 2.0. Luckily, Luis Suarez aka elsua had twittered it negatively, so I was very cautious.
To quote Dwight Silverman:

What is the Future of Work using Enterprise 2.0 technologies?
