An interesting enterprise-architecture back-and-forth, developing out of ideas from Robert Phipps:

• tetradian: [post] Enterprise-architecture as vectors http://bit.ly/j3QzVI (for @robert_phipps) #entarch
• nickmalik: RT @tetradian: [post] Enterprise-architecture as vectors http://bit.ly/j3QzVI (for @rjphi65) #entarch <– Every EA should read.  Write More
• nickmalik: @Robert_Phipps Want to see more on #entarch as vectors (from @tetradian).  May be breakthrough idea.  Please develop further.
• tetradian: @nickmalik EA as vectors ‘may be breakthrough idea’ – strong agree, is why I posted, to encourage @robert_phipps to write on it! 🙂 // just to reiterate (credit where it’s due) – ‘EA as vectors’ was @robert_phipps idea, not mine – I just publicised it for him 🙂
• richardsage: @tetradian @nickmalik @robert_phipps really like your vectors concept, interesting use of language to change how we think about a problem
• pbmobi: @nickmalik @Robert_Phipps @tetradian Way too abstract, companies are about people. Do you think this  idea makes #entarch #EA legible?
• leodesousa: @pbmobi @nickmalik @Robert_Phipps @tetradian not sure it is about #entarch legibility, more about demonstrating value of meeting strat goals
• Robert_Phipps: @nickmalik @tetradian thanks for the encouragement. Am starting now to assemble a more concrete piece.
