Some people speak of social media as if community never existed online before 2007. Bollocks. The human-powered web. Rubbish. It's always been human-powered, since day zero. If anything, it's a lot more robot powered now than ever before. Ever si...

The future of community

Some people speak of social media as if community never existed online before 2007. Bollocks. The human-powered web. Rubbish. It's always been human-powered, since day zero. If anything, it's a lot more robot powered now than ever before.

Gladwell on why the underdog wins

Call it what you want: disruptive technology, the upset victory, an insurgency...Malcolm Gladwell deconstructs how a small upstart group with good strategy and commitment can beat out inertia, scale and ability in this ultra-insightful piece in The New Yorker: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/05/11/090511fa_fact_gladwell

Definitely worth reading if you're attempting to change the status quo...
