Check it out.

Today, The Current on CBC Radio held a lengthy discussion on the topic of Twitter. I've posted about Twitter on the VP blog in the past, and I believe in the possibilities Twitter presents for connecting people, ideas and government.

The Cognitive Edge Accredidation Course was quite an experience.  It's a little ridiculous just how much they tried to cram into a 3-day course. 

There's little doubt that the work the theoretical framework they've put together (and by "they" I mean "Dave Snowden") is impressive.  Both John Bennett and I felt like we could see multiple ways to implement the things we learned into our processes here at Voluntary Planning.

Over the next three days, John Bennet and I will be joining a handful of others for Cognitive Edge training.  Cognitive Edge is all about making sense of complex systems.  Or so I understand...I'm sure after the training I'll be able to talk more clearly on the topic.

Some interesting news, the founder of Second Life, Philip Rosedale [wikipedia], stepped down from the role of CEO and will become Chairman of the Board at Lindin Labs.
