"Do you do what you do because you are supposed to, or because it seems the right thing to do?"

Regardless if you are PM or not, a person with integrity will the right thing. In PM screech, the best way to describe is the "PM ethics" :)-

to answer the bigger question "are our industry's best practices really that?" - most often its not- most PM follow the rigor of the corporate folio , because they need to toe the line and play the game. They maybe successful w/projects, but is it really cutting edge and best current practices for the market space ? IMHO, there is always areas that can be improved. Processes and methods need to change with market demands, most companies fall behind on the innovations curve.

This one brillent find .. thank you for sharing !!

Very interesting insight Matt - no wonder I follow you :)-

I think Frans Johansson's would agree that you sit within the intersections of new media and traditional media. One foot in either side.

[OT]
You may wonder why I bring up Frans Johansson Author of the medici effect here.. oh well I learnt from him to hover around "intersections" of interest which funnel insight into things and in return I kinda jumped started him into blogging again..

back to the point :)- I think the ethics difference between the MSM and the new media folks is simple. if its an ethics issue a person is responsible or its a company. A Company is like a facade of many faces so it kinda can get asskwed terms of responsibility's and face value and one way to build is to have that partnership with the community and build trust.

btw..My question is "Can Ethics be taught" ?

I agree wrt "a good thing in the eyes of most, but bad in the eyes of anonymous? " - this itself will tell how much humanity is matured . The beauty of Anon is that its loosely tied and widely organized. For something to be good to others ( as a majority) and bad to Anon - would be an interesting event to track. I really doubt that could happen, then it just becomes a local event and not truly a global event.. 14 countires / 57 protests- all with a single purpose is hard to do with zero $$$ investment...thats the key.. zero $$$ investment :)-

I have been tracking the Anon movement .. here are track points / post on the forum that I use frequently

Anon is a new type of movement in the making.. today it is Scientology, tomorrow it maybe something more important -- who knows. !!

Matt, I actually watched the show . It was good. next time around, you should have a twitter eventrack as the show is on- . This makes it more interesting with real time community feedback . A literally meshup of traditional media and new media.

"Web enables you to connect thoughts and ideas that you might not otherwise have had, and therefore is actually of more value rather than less."

Scot is correct- book reading is only a means to dilute the mind when there is no net access.

However, mans best friend is h/er books.. books cannot die, even though society changes, books will remain the foundation of learning- schools will still use books .. else it impossible to teach. Or maybe the world will change so much that humanity will forget how to write?

think about it ..a blank book is a blank book , unit the kid scribbles in it.. after that is becomes part of a time vault :)-

yeah and I got a screen capture of Jerry Yangs confidential memo to SEC :)-

"social networking companies to take it upon themselves to police their memberships" !!

Wrong - the community should police itself. When, lets say ,at the rate 30K users- signing up everyday, its impossible for companies to police and verify who is signing up.

The community should be a little bit more level headed in what they do and don't do online. How, about all the peep who intro them victims to said "David W. Evans" - could they also be charged with adding and abetting a felony crime ?? Should they not be ???

In my not so humble Opinion, Every person who intro a member to David should also be charged ... and that will be a big lesson for others in the social areana

Not seeing the big deal at all here.. using GPhoto screensaver - version 2.0.0.1077 runnin on PC - and HDTV linked in via RSS Port and rss/photostream to pipe random pics from picaso (not sure about flicker photos being piped in !!)

Vijyay,

Riya tried this out.. the scale of economics is just not feasible yet !!

Holistically, I can see your reasoning and agree with the long term vision. Startups can mobilize in India..but having a core team in the west coast and then dev team in india. is just NOT working out. Secondly, you need to go back and review your post on incubation and mentorship. Startup's need to move that bold move to remove themselves from the string that tie them into a position of weakness. (incubation theory) However, that again will negate series funding and advisory committee's are not conducive to their funds being driven by passion and vision alone.. let alone in another country.

Global Hedge fund mobilization in India is what is needed...
