Wikinomics In The Blogosphere

In this latest edition of Wikinomics In The Blogosphere:

On RealBlogging, a real estate blog, Stefan Swanepoel writes about how Gen Xers, the Net Geners (and maybe soon Gen Z’s) have made their mark on the internet by creating web 2.0 and bringing inventive new approaches to well established ideas. Stefan provides a list of real estate sites to watch that follow in kind with the new trends of the Internet.

Luke Naismith writes, on his blog Knowledge Futures, about the differences between coordination, cooperation and collaboration.

The team at Future Majority has a great piece on the task of updating the U.S. congress to a modern, wikified state. They also provide some examples of government institutions that are using web 2.0 technology. There’s also coverage of Don’s upcoming book, Grown Up Digital.

Across the world, the Gulf Times reports on how the Qatar Academy and 9 other schools internationally are participating in the Horizon Project, bringing wikis into the classroom.

Finally, if you’re in the mood for a decidedly non-web 2.0 approach to Wikinomics, it seems that there are numerous discussions about Wikinomics going on on the internet’s grandfather, usenet. I had no idea people still posted on usenet.

Addition: Mike just came across this fantastic profile of the Wikinomics book and blog.
