Things You Really Need to Learn
Advertisers make you feel badly so you'll buy their product, politicians make you feel incapable so you'll depend on their policies and programs, even your friends and acquaintances may seek to make you doubt yourself in order to seek an edge in a competition. Guy Kawasaki last week wrote an item describing 'ten things you should learn this school year' in which readers were advised to learn how to write five sentence emails, create powerpoint slides, and survive boring meetings. It was, to my view, advice on how to be a business toady.

Profitably Running an Online Business in the Web 2.0 Era
Seems easy but almost all companies have people in the loop to manage the edge-cases. Unfortunately, edge cases represent the The Long Tail of customer service. In other words, you can't directly monetize The Long Tail without this. Lying directly in the primary tenets of Web 2.0 however, are a series of two-edged issues from a revenue perspective. One of the things I'm doing this week is preparing for a presentation at Web Builder 2.0 on how to monetize mashups in Las Vegas next week. Consequently, I've been pulling together notes, talking

Going Beyond User Generated Software: Web 2.0 and the Pragmatic Semantic Web
And while this -- and by " this " I mean recombinant, self-assembling software that exploits collective intelligence -- is certainly the cutting edge of software development, many companies are beginning to map out this terrain closely and I encourage you to begin tracking them along with me. I was traveling most of last week and so was unable to weigh in on the Web 3.0 mini-tempest that occurred when John Markoff published his exploratory piece in the NY Times last Sunday.

Kirschner, Sweller, Clark (2006) - Readings
2006). However, it must be admitted that relatively few of those articles meet the criteria for “design based research” (DBR) suggested by Brown (1992), Collins (1992), and Kelly (2003). -- Another example of what I would regard as a communication failure is provided by the previously mentioned paper of Kirschner, Sweller, & Clark (2006) with its seemingly non- sequitur title “Why Minimal Guidance During Instruction Does Not Work: An Analysis of the Failure of Constructivist, Discovery, Problem-Based, Experiential, and Inquiry-Based Teaching,” even despite PER evidence reviewed by

Time Magazine's Person of the Year: You and Web 2.0
The Person of the Year cover story appears with the tagline that " in 2006, the World Wide Web became a tool for bringing together the small contributions of millions of people and making them matter . The cover story's lead author Lev Grossman then starts off with some fairly inspired prose after noting that there are still serious problems in the word which aregrowing in conjunction with this apparent technological Utopia, writing: But look at 2006 through a different lens and you'll see another story, one that isn't about conflict or great men.
