I recently came across two great pieces of research, both by veteran organizational scholars who have closely examined what middle managers really do. And their findings and conclusions convinced me that middle managers aren't going anywhere, nor should they. - Andrew McAfee HBR Dec 15 2009

What is The Memex? Xerox Presents Trailmeme

ast week Google chairman and CEO Eric Schmidt wrote a guest article for the Wall St Journal, discussing the need for new forms of newspaper publishing to replace the old print paradigm. Another not-so-new paradigm, but one more suited to the networked computer age we live in today, is Vannevar Bush's 1945 pre-hypertext concept the Memex.

Trailmeme is a product by Xerox that models itself on The Memex. It's a destination site for Xerox Trails, which is being promoted as "a new kind of Web-based publishing technology."

Fact-Checkers and Certified Public Logicians Boing Boing

Many of big ideas that computer visionary Douglas Engelbart came up with in the 1960's have come true, but a couple of them haven't yet. One of these is his notion of the "Certified Public Logician." Engelbart predicted that a new class of knowledge worker would act as front-ends to the machine-enabled collective intelligence. Part logician, part notary, these "Certified Public Logicians" would review texts for logical consistency and then tag them up with appropriate envelope information and enter them into the machine.

It's a great idea, and I think we could promote all of our fact-checkers into Certified Public Logicians pretty easily.

thingamy: E 2.0 - not joining the debate, but...

With the company-wide network something else happened, visiting the office next door was replaced with online socialising. And while Peter found Andy in full agreement with his views one day it did not take long before they found disagreement helped by full transparency and input from 100 opinionated co-workers. The full throttle dynamics killed the slower dynamics of yesteryear and any tendency to group forming was followed by instant and efficient group splintering.

It was the exact same effect the E 2.0 advocates predict will flatten the hierarchy that splintered the employee group building. 'Split and control' is an old adage, and here they had organised it themselves. Excellent we said.

Getting Real (Close to) RealTime Collaboration | Information Architected

  • The underlying guts of the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) which powers much of the snazziness and speed of the Wave interface is clearly gaining momentum, as other commercial software suppliers such as  Traction Software (among others), begin to take advantage of the code investment of Google into high-performance Javascript and frameworks.

Technology News: Communication Systems: Mozilla's Raindrop to Provide a Tidy In-Box for Everything

Although Raindrop and Google Wave may appear similar, they are not the same thing. "Raindrop is more of a message desk or organizer, while Wave tries to introduce a model that replaces threaded email discussion by collaboration and conversation in place," Gregory Lloyd, president of Traction Software told TechNewsWorld. His company has created the Traction TeamPage proprietary social networking platform.
