A week in Tweets: 11-17 July 2010
Finally catching up again: last week’s collection of Tweets and links. Usual categories unless otherwise noted.
A week in Tweets: 4-10 July 2010
More catchup on the backlog: another slightly-backdated list of Tweets and links. Usual categories, probably.
A week in Tweets: 27 June – 3 July 2010
Oops… starting to slide back again. (My excuse was that I wanted all the Enterprise Canvas articles to appear together in the weblog, without the sequence being interrupted by any other articles.) Anyway, catching up, another week’s worth of Tweets and linked, sorted into the usual categories. Over to you: Share and Enjoy?
A week in Tweets: 20-26 June 2010
Getting close to catch-up, the previous week’s collection of Tweets and links. Usual categories, of course, plus a couple of extras this time.
A week in Tweets: 13-19 June 2010
Still on catch-up after recovering from the ‘technical hitch’, so this is almost a couple of weeks late – apologies. (It should have included all the tweets from the IRM Enterprise Architecture Conference, but that’s ‘old news’ by now – let me know if you would still want me to post them?) Same categories as usual, anyways.
A week in Tweets: 6-12 June 2010
Running a couple weeks late with this one, courtesy of technical problems on the site (now fixed, I hope) – my apologies. Usual categories after the ‘Read more…’ link, anyway.
A week in Tweets: 30 May – 5 June 2010
It’s been another week, unpleasantly tumultuous in places, but the Tweets go on regardless!
So here’s another week’s collection, usual headings, usual ‘Read more…’ link.
A problem of possession
This one’s for Oscar Berg, who this morning sent out the following Tweet:
My best ideas that I use at work are born outside of office hours. Who owns these ideas?
I commented on my reTweet that this was a “key fail of possession-economy”. It’s actually much more serious than a mere ‘fail’, but we’ll come back to that in a moment. First, some more follow-on Tweets from Oscar as he mused further on his experiences:
With social media people have tools that can serve as evidence that they got an idea outside of work before they used it at work
Here’s my idea: if my ideas are free & available for anyone to use, noone can own them -> I can use them as well for whatever purpose
Organizations are obsessed with owning ideas & knowledge
Enterprises should focus on becoming the best environments for ideas to be born, grow and successfully be brought to the market
RT @tdebaillon: “Claiming to own an idea is a political matter, a will to stay in control-and-command logic”
RT @EskoKilpi: “attribution is the new ownership” #ideas
This is indeed a question of ownership – and a highly political one at that, as Thierry de Baillon explains above. Perhaps the key point here is that there are two fundamentally different concepts of ownership: possession, and stewardship (the latter sometimes referred to, perhaps more usefully, as responsibility-based ownership).
A week in Tweets: 23-29 May 2010
Another public-holiday long-weekend in Britain, hence it’s (of course?) even more than usually cold, windy, grey, damp and dull. So you may as well stay in and wander through another week’s-worth of Tweets and links, perhaps? Usual categories, usual ‘Read more…’ link, anyway.
