it’s one of those things that seems so obvious
that it’s worth repeating every now and again – one of the very tangible
benefits that i get from reading blogs is getting to catch up on
the latest from the likes of
ray ozzie
and
doc searls
.
can you remember what life was like before you could just go and
watch ray ozzie riff on
collaboration
?
“The way that I explore is to build products, and to
see how they are used. To see what works, and what doesn’t. To
listen, to interact, to refine. Because cooperative work exists at
the intersection between people, organizations, and technology,
collaborative systems are truly fascinating: in order to serve
people effectively, technologists must, for example, understand
social dynamics, social networks, human factors.”
