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

[Paul B. Hartzog]

As usual Sam is right on the money here.

In Kevin Kelly's 'New Rules' book he points out that projects that
succeed will do so because they will 'feed the network first' i.e.
they will be part of a successful ecology of producers.

I wish we could get more small businesses and cooperative workgroups
to realize that in order to succeed they need to first seek out the
others in their ecology that constitute complements to their own work,
producer bigger feedback loops, and more sustainability.

Tough road though.....
