To own is about building your ego.
Sharing is about building a Network.
To share means that what is good for you, can be good for others.
Why keep it to yourself!
The message is important.

: That is the key that we have more primary witnesses to events. First hand history is always better in the long run than secondary and even tertiary sources or channels of information. As someone else mentioned it is brand new reporting territory and it is difficult to fact check tweets as well as there should be some sop's set up for how to use the channels in time of an emergency. So folks make situations potentially worse. Still twitter and Friendfeed are where I turned.

: twitter is a news source like conversations in the street are a news source. there is some value to verification of sources, to gathering information from news sources, to filtering out repetition and to presenting the news in a coherent fashion. these things twitter doesn't do but that is not to say it has no news value. as somewhere to trawl for raw data in the case of a breaking story, it may be valuable.

Locris,

: This is beginning to look like a five-state election. Those states are Virginia, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Nevada. Essentially all relevant electoral scenarios involve some combination of these five states.

I should caution that by far the most likely scenario is that Obama wins some relatively decisive victory of anywhere from 3-12 points in the popular vote. If Obama wins the popular vote by anything in this range, he will find plenty of blue territory, accumulating somewhere between 300-400 electoral votes. The electoral math will matter very little.

Piblogger,
Oct 19, 2008
: The following is an excerpt of an article I wrote on the practical evolution from Web 2.0 to the semantic-based 3.0, and the eventual introduction of the Web 4.0 platform. (Note: a good portion of my research that led to the development of the Web 4.0 platform was funded by the Government of Canada's Scientific Research & Experimental Development Program.)

"And in a world of increased expectations, social technologies or platforms (nee Web 2.0) are refelctive of the speed by which critical information or knowledge is exchanged and made available on a mass populace basis.

However, one of the main keys to adoption are the filters that are used at the point of entry to differentiate opinion from viable subject matter. And this is where Web 2.0 serves as the starting point for the dynamic exchange of tangible ideas and ultimately the business processes that will define supply chain practice for the next 25 years and beyond.

In the latter instance, and extending beyond the semantic elements of the soon to be “released” Web 3.0, the Web 4.0 platform is an intelligent engagement mechanism that is capable of assembling and managing seemingly disparate streams of information (relational strands) into a collective outcome that has real-world applicability. And it is in this real-world applicability that the greatest value from a supply chain perspective can be achieved.

Think of it this way, what are the common element(s) linking the different strands represented by Kodak’s digital imaging marketing strategy, Higher Education supplier engagement programs and the development of regionalized (supply) clusters? Web 2.0 in its present form as an “important” entry point to Social Networking has not been structured to address this kind of query. And Web 3.0, which relies extensively on semantics or the correlation of common words, has proven to be unreliable in terms of providing accurate insights. Only Web 4.0 will be able to identify the relevancy of the link in a matter of seconds, and how the collective outcome of these individual elements will impact your organization’s supply chain practice.

Given the evolution of supply chain capability and professional competency through the Web 4.0 platform, the move by CPPC-CCMP to embrace Web 2.0 as a critical resource is not only timely, but also essential to maintaining it’s memberships’ ability to continue making a meaningful contribution in the arena of public sector procurement."

Links to associated articles in which the practical utilization of the Web 3.0 and introduction of the Web 4.0 platform are discussed:
