We welcome Don Tapscott to the ranks of the Cool Friends. His recent book, Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything, might possibly be essential reading for anybody doing business today.

With typical understatement I told our participants, “You must not ‘read’ this book, you must ‘ingest’ it.”
