It’s just a rumour that’s been spread around town.

Anne Galloway on Clay Shirky’s ‘social software and shipbuilding’ riff. New readers start here for more on ‘Shipbuilding’; but if you want to go straight to Anne’s piece, then this is socialshipbuilding-in-a-nutshell:

“We are ill-served by the current metaphor of architecture and space, instead we should consider the construction of social software as like building a ship: Ships are places where people come together… but they come together in order to get somewhere.”Clay

Doors

Going to be jumping on a plane tomorrow to Amsterdam to attend Doors of Perception.

Hopefully there will be some wireless connectivity at the conference, otherwise I’ll be lugging my lump of titanum for nothing.

Anyway – if you’re attending, let me know either by mail, or leaving a comment below.
