It is possible that Wikis will “change everything.” On the way to Manchester I re-read the profoundly important book by Don Tapscott & Anthony Williams, Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything. (Blogged previously.) If possible, it had greater impact the second time ’round. Hence, I created a little presentation that I used in Manchester—which we’ve attached. With typical understatement I told our participants, “You must not ‘read’ this book, you must ‘ingest’ it.”
Hint: I meant it.
