			<description><![CDATA[I'm not sure if open source projects has been more "innovative" than commercial projects. Flagship projects such as Linux and Open Office are essentially clones of other projects (GNU and Office), but which happen to be free. What is true though is that open source allows the creation of projects (e.g. Bit-torrent client Azureus, currently #1 on SourceForce) that would not be viable as a commercial enterprise (due to legal costs or lack of a revenue stream).

			<description><![CDATA[When the author's old firm, Site Specific, contracted with AT&T, they had a hard time justifying their use of Perl (supported by a "community") vs. C++ (which was invested and supported by AT&T). Ironically, the community around Perl has subsequently outlasted AT&T the company. (page 256) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Open source threatens commercial software because it is out-failing them. Companies have an incentive to pick "safe" projects to pursue because the cost of failure outweighs the cost of passing on a success. However, the open source ecosystem does not have this asymmetry and can try riskier things. Moreover, unlike a company, the ecosystem does not have to spend resources evaluating the likelihood of projects before pursuing them. (page 245) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Linus Torvalds started Linux with a very casual post. The openness and lack of pretense in this post was essential in getting people involved quickly. The later adoption of the GPL also ensured that contributions would not be wasted even in the event of Linus's departure from the project. (page 238) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Meetup is successful at "discovering" successful groups like Stay-At-Home-Moms because it can tolerate a high number of failed groups, and allow resources to flow to the successful ones. The cost of trying is essentially zero. Its success is due to the high rate of trying. (page 235) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is why corporate communication sounds so bland and impersonal. True mass-personalization is severely limited by scale. One way to address this is to flip the problem around: Impose a strong culture and have your audience self-select and self-tune to it. (page 90) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It is a fallacy to think that conversations can scale to the level of broadcast media. Once a person or entity becomes famous, they by definition have more inbound views than they can possibly respond personally to. This is a social, and not just a technological, limitation.

			<description><![CDATA[Although equipped with smaller guns and lighter armor than their French counterparts, the German Panzer tanks successfully carried out the blitzkrieg with the help of radios. Their new strategy, enabled with radios, made the Panzers a coordinated, nimble force vs. the French Char B's which were used as soldier support platforms. (page 172) --scribilus]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA["Bonding capital" is the deepening of connections within a group. "Bridging capital" is the broadening of connections between groups. A focus on only the former and not the latter can lead to exclusivity or even an echo chamber effect, as happened in the 2004 Howard Dean presidential campaign.
