Serendipity edublogs,social camp for innovation,SLF2008 all point me in direction of Charlie Leadbetter

I found this through a reminder for the social camp 4 innovation http://www.sicamp.org
on April the 4th in London and then Ewan McIntosh also mentioned it on edublogs.com. Charlie Leadbetter of forthcoming book "We think" http://www.wethinkthebook.net/book/home.aspx

It expounds the idea of mass shared creativity in a no nonsense approach

ideas take life when they are shared. That is why the web is such a potent platform for creativity and innovation.

worth a look at the first free chapters as a download on the website in a try before you buy scheme. Is this a web 1.5 business model for publishing ?? The good news he is speaking at Scottish learning Festival 2008 in September another good reason to book.

In the wild three the aftermath

Ok at the Scottish learning festival free WiFi yippee !! reflecting on in the wild and its colocation with Teachmeet two events full of people that get it.
In the wild organised by Steve Moore of policy unplugged

the speakers were thought provoking and to be honest improved as the event went through . Matt Locke really made me think his experience of Digital media across the spectrum and his gaming experience in particular and user interaction and generating content really pushed my thinking.

Steve Moore also made me think with extensive use of facebook as a network tool and event organising/marketing tool Steve you are going to write me a case study piece for my blog on this !!!!!

In the wild maybe just really wild !!!
