Quick Take: "Meaning = Data + Structure: User Generated Structure" from Lightspeed Venture Partners; slightly related: "Free! Why $0.00 Is the Future of Business from Wired / techbix / IT
- Top of mind just now: "Managing Semi-Structured Data", "Epistemology of a Rule-based Expert System" and "The Neural Basis of Predicate-Argument Structure" And (thanks to my LiveJournal friend "cluttered_mind") : "Knowledge Representation Logical, Philosophical, and Computational Foundations"
- Also on the shelf: "Some Thoughts About the Social Implications of Accessible Computing"

- "Since 1998, Jerry has been an independent consultant, doing business as Sociate, a name he coined because he is skilled at associating ideas and people, and also because he believes that the social changes that we are going through as a result of all the new connectivity (e.g., Internet, cell phones, inexpensive cameras, podcasting) will be more profound than the structural and economic changes we have already seen."

- "I was one of approx. 40 people in Kansas City who were a part of the BBS community and we had a lot of fun together. We visited each other's BBS's, posted in discussions, chatted with each other, and occasionally gathered in person. Some of those people - you know who you are - I still consider close friends. Others disappeared into the ether (and are probably somewhere on the net), never to be seen or heard from again."

- "We call them "HipBone Games" because of the old song, "the hip-bone connected to the thigh-bone", and because they are games of connection, of the links between ideas.

By Way of Context
From my 03FEB08 "Web2.0 ... Epiphany doesn't just happen":
- I reached a watershed moment with " John Willinsky's OpenAccess text "If Only We Knew; Increasing the public value of social science research" open and sitting /there/ alongside " Jürgen Habermas' "Discourse Ethics"
- on John Willinsky -"Accessing medical information; Dr. John Willinsky makes the case for open access to research publications."; "An Interview with Open Medicine's Publisher - John Willinsky"; a review of Willinsky's "The access principle: the case for open access to research and scholarship"; "The Access Principle The Case for Open Access to Research and Scholarship" MIT Press (2005).
- on Jürgen Habermas - " "Moral Conciousness and Communicative Action" (Studies in Contemporary German Social Thought) by Habermas, Christian Lenhardt, and Shierry Weber Nicholsen (2001), and "" Justification and Application: Remarks on Discourse Ethics", both at Amazon.
