[p2p-research] Google to tear down social networking walls

[Samuel Rose]

Michel, I think that the pace of change is going to pick up over the next 5
years as compared to the last 10

Soon, we won't be able to point to any one emerging service or change as a
world-impacting. It will be more like collections (or "ecologies") of
changes. There will be too much for a guy like you to keep up with! (if
there is not already)

There are so many reasons why this is happening that I don't have time to
get into them all right now.

One trend that is emerging is that many people are now actively trying to
use several technologies in the practice of solving problems. And so, field
builders, trend watchers, people involved in futures studies or academic
understanding of what is "happening" will need to also be involved as
observers and participants in what is happening, to really follow it. This
gives a multi-way advantage to everyone involved, in that academics have
more immediate connection to what is happening, and people trying to solve
problems have more immediate connection to academic understanding.

There is a new set of "business"/financial/operating models emerging that
can support this. I can give several examples if people are interested.
