I was wondering if there is another method of submitting proposals for BlogTalk (t d f) than email. It needs to be confidential (if email ever is confidential) and very easy - like sending an email - without giving others access to the submitted proposals.

Just had an interesting talk with Michael Swoboda of Telekom Austria (t d f) about product development and marketing in the age of internetworks. They were able to get rid of the idea that an ISP should create content, they finally understood that enabling is the key to customer acceptance.
Content is king was the last outcry before we and they started to understand that it’s about connectivity (t d f) and NOT content.

Reed’s law (t d f): “Reed’s law is the assertion of David P. Reed (t d f) that the utility of large networks, particularly social networks, can scale exponentially with the size of the network.”

As you might know we work hard to further refine permalink’s social software suite NEXTspace; if you are interested you can testdrive (send me an email) or watch the changelog.

Had a customer talk today ’bout the roll-out of NEXTspace (t d f) our product. The setting is a research program on feminist IT (kind of affirmative action that should shift the attention to female IT-workers on several layers).
My dialogue partner did refer to some issues regarding acceptance of our social software suite and quoted from one of the participants:

“Don’t know what the problem is [with rejecting hierarchical file systems - tb] that’s [a different approach to browse files - tb] what feminist (t d f) IT is proclaiming for years!”

That made my day!
