Precision-guided journalism In the past week, I made two postings regarding the network effects on organizations. What I was also trying to say, is now in words within Chad Dickerson's 'The Decentralization Battle'. Here is a quote from it - "For now, you can try to keep your employees on a cluster of centrally managed Lotus Notes servers for "collaboration," but once they take 10 minutes to download and install Groove Workspace, they will ultimately self-organize within "shared spaces" that require no server -- and your role as collaboration traffic cop will quickly become irrelevant." This is precision-guided journalism. 1:15:19 AM
