It's a nice view on *this* side of 'The Great Disruption', to have already begun to pick apart the web of tools and potential, to look ahead and see the value of what we're already doing, and then to think of the transitions ahead as a puzzle that has yet to be solved. Harold, I think that you should run with it - you have the insight and drive to create a program, or many, to help guide organizations through organizing and mobilizing their strategies using web2.0. Go for it!!! I agree that this discussion is very exciting.

I wonder what a business that operated internally as a "market economy" would look like. Is such a thing even possible?

And of course there are many many people and approaches to "change" now taking cues from natural processes and self-organizing systems. I noticed somewhere recently that one of the iconic figures of the brief moment in the sun had by the socio-technical systems" school, William Pasmore, has come out with a new book sometime in the last several years. No doubt this will be an area of ongoing enquiry for the rest of yours and my working life, Harold ;-) There’s an interesting book about 5 years old that addresses this issue: “It’s Alive – The Coming Convergence of Information, Biology and Business”, by Stan davis and Christopher Meyer.
