  • Jimmy  Mathew, I agree, I have gotten a lot more just from Twitter than from FB and found a lot of things I would have not otherwise seen. As for your references to weak ties, I read a book recently called "Linked: The New Science of Networks" by Albert-Laszlo Barabasi. He looks at all types of networks, social and otherwise. He draws a similar conclusion to the weak ties. He looked at how we get job leads and referrals and found that contrary to what we would assume, many of these come from those weak links on the edge of our social networks, not our close in ties. Great piece. Happy New Year regards jimmy

  • Jimmy  Morning Mathew, I saw this the otehr day and also thought it was pretty cool. (http://tinyurl.com/2ekfmk) To me, it is always good when an institution as old as the monarchy sees the value in adopting new technology. Now the entire "empire" so to speak is able to page through their rich history and see it at the same time, all within reach of their desktop/laptop. Have a great holiday jimmy
