		<description><![CDATA[I’m reading “Business @ the Speed of Thought,” by Bill Gates.  (Chapters-Indigo Link Here)  He wrote it ten years ago, which allows me the critical distance I prefer when reading a book that prognosticates.
Say what you will about MS Windows, Mr. Gates knows business.  So I figured his views on business in the post-industrial age [...]]]></description>

Goodwill has to do with the perception of your enterprise, and liability has to do with getting into real legal trouble.  How are they connected by this Web 2.0 stuff?  ... Being obnoxious, opinionated, or siding with one side of a contentious debate will not likely create more than a bad taste in the reader's mouth.  Being wrong, when you carry a banner of knowing better, can create a problem.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With WOM and social network marketing, we move from getting people to wear branded clothing to transforming them into fans banding together to pontificate, not on the merits of your product, but on the social imperative of being a fan of the brand.  ...  We do have something that looks a lot like agency...  Once you let someone use the stuff you’re supposed to be protecting, and you let them use it to an extent that gives them a fair bit of potential power because of the near-instantaneous and viral nature of the networks used, you’re actually handing over some pretty hefty reins. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Instead of tightening your grip on intellectual property (mostly trade-mark with a healthy dose of copyright and some neighbouring rights) and then hoping for royalties, the group doing the marketing attempts to engineer a type of personality cult for the brand. ...  What I'm talking about is tying differences (real or created) to cultural phenomena, and then grabbing hold of those phenomena and driving from that end; the product becomes a tag-along to those cultural memes.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bell claims that they have to throttle bandwidth or Internet access will be slow for everyone.  Since it was only with the discovery that Bell was shuffling high-payload users into a slow lane that we found out that there were people moving along faster, it now recasts the entire argument as follows:

Bell originally marketed ultra-high speed access as a fast lane since everything was getting slow.  Now we know that it was only slow for those upon whom slowness was being forced by Bell so that they could then justify the higher price of ultra-high speed (i.e. allegedly unthrottled) access.  Bell claims this is necessary, as there is an imminent threat to everyone’s bandwidth.  But unlike a concrete highway, bandwidth is not based on scarce real property.  It is based on virtually limitless fibre-optic trunks and always-improving server technology.  The physical space occupied by these bandwidth highways is minimal; the physical space required for expansion, if it is in fact necessary, is negligible.]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been challenged to propose something better, so here I go:
