I’d like to teach the world to blog
Groklaw has posted the edited and disclaimered text of an email conversation with “PJ” at the Pentagon about how the DoD just loves Linux. Towards the end of the email, there’s this bit of praise that points to the power of blogging: #
“I think your efforts at building (and leading) a community is one of the internet’s treasures. I used pull my hair out trying to explain to senior executives how important community building can be, especially among the intelligence analysts on our secure networks. Building collaborative tools and having someone such as yourself to lead a group of analysts is really the key to success for transforming our “business”. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone do this as well as you have with Groklaw.” #True dat. The blog is a really cool tool, and like all tools it’s only as good as the people using it. The exciting thing about blogs and the Internet is the potential that exists for pulling together people with like-minded interests from all over the world – transparently and easily. As PJ suggests, blogs like Groklaw also prove the case for tools that will help existing businesses work together better. # #
