Connectivity
I find great inspiration in the possibilities afforded us by the neural network of our web connectivity. It seems that we just need to recognize the consistent way our social co-valent bonds can bind us together for mutual benefits, globally.

Interoperability
My hope is that we use what we don’t know (yet) to discover what we need (now) from what we have learned (then). My suggestion is that to do so we just have to question the answers. So, what’s the best question? (that one of course). Who knows the answer – you do (and I do). The system is not the power – it is the result of power, ours.

Fractal thought:
What would it be like if someone grabbed us by our power head and reached down our mental throat and grabbed us by the long-tail – pulled us inside-out ..leaving us exactly the same – only changed – and with a better perspective.? …I’m just sayin’

whenever i hear “chaos theory” i think of jeff goldbloom playing with that water droplet in Jurassic Park. but i digress. your blog is the real deal. i am usually angry that you figured this stuff out before me, but then i’m unbelievably happy that someone else has done the work

kudos.

Albert,

I think you’re right. Real world volatility is much more chaotic than it is random (as the recent financial crises showed). We need to take into account more extreme values.

Greg, great summary piece. Certainly the future will be in harnessing the dynamical nature of networks to extract and exploit intelligence. Technologies of the future will need to be “architected” to serve these environments more effectively.

Greg,

This is the first your post that you actually lost for a second or was it Chaos But summed betifully in the end with “media recruiting and organizing their audience”

Wilfried,

I can recommend “Chaos” by James Gleik, Sych by Steven Strogatz and The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets by Mandelbrot.
