ok, I need a safari hat, a stilleto and a pint of raw ether

That’s right it’s Gonzo Consulting time.

Where’s my attorney? I want to give you all the background on this thing because despite the market…we can still make this work. It’ll take true grit and believe you me, we are chock full of that.

Now, we’ll need to drop grid computing, add enterprise 2.0. Don’t take any guff from these swine! Social media is played so we’ll need to phase II this thing and get some commercial wheels on it. I’m thinking of a world where we move on from the experiment that is the social media sites and bring that sense of community into the enterprise. Communities, not teams. Causes not projects.

(and wait ’til you start seeing those vultures known as compliance and security come our way, oh the poor bastards)

The thing that concerns me now is the infusion of community-based commerce in big brands. It’s no longer collaborative filtering…we just know what everyone bought because it’s on Facebook. Looking at these opportunities with better eyes then we have been is what is needed to get the engine of our country running again.

It’ll be then, and only then, when we can ride this thing into the heart of the American dream.
