Seems to me that it 50 years might be a good time for many of us to
write essays on things we've observed and learned - as network users &
builders.
We've certainly seen entire industries & societal segments radically
reshape themselves around network-centricity - some better than others,
some not at all.
Me, I've been working on a series of blog posts titled "Notes of a
Network Watcher" - focused on how organizations have changed,
particularly in how we plan & organize complex activities (mission
planning & battle management, political campaigns, transit operations,
virtual businesses) in particular - reflecting my own experiences).
I'd sure like to see somebody write something on how the management of
movie production has changed - just looking at the credits for a modern
movie suggests that making a modern movie might be the only human
activity more complex than planning & waging war.
Anybody out there want to collaborate on a series of chapters to collect
into a book on "50 Years of a Network-Centric Society?" (Before we all
die off, and leave people to repeat mistakes that we've already made and
learned from.)
Cheers,
Miles Fidelman
