Lords of Strategy: A Conversation with Walter Kiechel
I spoke recently with Walter Kiechel about his new book, The Lords of Strategy , which describes the rise of the large strategy consulting firms — BCG, McKinsey, and Bain — as well as the business school professors who contributed conceptual frameworks and pragmatic insights to the strategy revolution. The giant firms, the McKinseys and the BCGs, specialize around their industry practices and around certain management concepts. Kiechel, a former Managing Editor at Fortune magazine, was the Editorial Director of Harvard Business Publishing from 1998 to 2002.

Social Media Goes Mainstream
Now before I present my case for the mainstreaming of shared, collaborative media, we should more carefully define the term that captures this best: social media . Wikipedia of course has the most easily accessible definition of social media , describing it as " online tools and platforms that people use to share opinions, insights, experiences, and perspectives with each other. Social media can take many While some will dispute what mainstream is defined as exactly -- with my own personal favorite being when my grandparents and their grandchildren both are doing whatever is under discussion -- the rise of consumer-powered media platforms has all the hallmarks of being something that's not only here to stay, but something that's increasingly pushing everything else off the stage.

Five Mind-Blowing Web Stats You Should Know
The following year I started a company, ZEFER, while at the management consulting firm McKinsey & Company. That said, I think I'm more impressed by InsideFacebook.com's estimates that the social network is adding 700,000 new users per day .
Fifteen years have passed since I was first introduced to the web by Marc Andreessen and Jim Clark's launch of Netscape in 1994 . ZEFER was one of the earliest Internet services and development firms and we were both thrilled and lucky to be participants in the first days of Internet commercialization.

It's the first work day of the new year and I thought I'd take some time to offer up my predictions for what will happen on the leading edge of the Internet this year.
