I am seriously interested in the dynamics of social networking so I have just issued a Twitter challenge: what is the future of the CIO? – in less than 140 characters with tag #ciofuture
The results, or non-results, will be interesting and I will report back soon.



Hi Colin,
Take a look at: http://www.spiraldynamics.org. I found it very interesting, to help the understanding of the complexity of social networking. (I am working on it, coupled a research about change management, blue ocean strategy, and complex systems (autopoiesis, self-organization, order from noise,…)).
It is based on Clare Graves’ Spiral Dinamics theory.
Cheers,
Mario
PS We have just started a group (couple weeks ago) about Graves’ theory, on LinkedIn. It was my first contact with the theory.
