Overview In November of 2011 Gordon Ross and I presented What Urban Planning Can Teach Us About Social Business Design at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference in Santa Clara (the presentation is loaded at the end of this post). I was excited about the presentation as it was a great opportunity to place the foundations of understanding social at scale into the Enterprise 2.0 / social business community (Stewart Mader and I have done this in the past as part of the One Year Club presentations). A background of a masters in public policy 16 plus years ago gave me a great foundation for understanding social at scale through analytics and analysis, but also it primed me for all the “for fun” reading I did after graduation in urban planning and taking it to nice depths that professional tomes offered to get solid understandings.

Social Scaling When considering social systems of any type it is important to understand what scale of social system you are dealing with. Hamlets Villages Towns Cities.

January 16, 2014 Brett Terpstra Focusses on His Work Full-time I have been a fan of Brett Terpstra for some time. I found his site through a few buds who focus on productivity and personal workflows (including scripting). I have followed his Systematic podcast since the first episode and have found it is the one podcast I listen to when my weekly listening dwindles to just one podcast. His nvALT became an app that is always running and where a lot of writing snippets get stored on my Mac (that content I also reach on my iOS devices to edit and extend).

His Marked2 app not only is my Markedown viewer, but a rather good writing analysis tool. Not only all of this but Brett is a tagger and not only tags, belives tagging is helpful for personal filtering and workflow, but has built tools to greater extend tagging in and around Mac and iOS. Brett Steps Out to Focus on His Work December 31, 2010 Closing Delicious? Redundancy Never the less, this brings-up an important point: Redundancy. Yes! Bloug: Folksonomies? How about Metadata Ecologies? Jan 06, 2005: Folksonomies? How about Metadata Ecologies? Lately, you can't surf information architecture blogs for five minutes without stumbling on a discussion of folksonomies (there; it happened again!). As sites like Flickr and del.icio.us successfully utilize informal tags developed by communities of users, it's easy to say that the social networkers have figured out what the librarians haven't: a way to make metadata work in widely distributed and heretofore disconnected content collections.

Easy, but wrong: folksonomies are clearly compelling, supporting a serendipitous form of browsing that can be quite useful. But they don't support searching and other types of browsing nearly as well as tags from controlled vocabularies applied by professionals. Folksonomies aren't likely to organically arrive at preferred terms for concepts, or even evolve synonymous clusters. But I didn't mean to write an anti-folksonomy screed; just not quite ready to jump on the bandwagon yet.

Social learning, open education, and petty battles with rivals over power and money… A View Out of the Front Door of my Kharkov Apartment shared CC by Stuck in Customs It’s been an ungodly amount of time since I updated my blogs.

I thought I might reproduce an email I just sent off to a faculty member at UBC that I am trying to convince of the value of opening up a course reader. I do this because… * as Jon Udell might say, I am conserving keystrokes * it’s possible somebody else might find this useful * it’s more likely that somebody can suggest how I improve such communications in the future The questions posed by the faculty member are in bold text. Please forgive how long it has taken me to respond to your questions. [ It's amazing how many of my emails start out this way. ] Can you please let me know what the UBC Wiki is or its purpose?

The UBC Wiki is meant to be a platform for the simplest possible content creation and sharing, for the UBC community and beyond.
