Wikinomics in the Blogosphere
This week we take another look at the coverage that Wikinomics — both the book and the principles — is receiving across the Internet.
The Letture blog provides a comprehensive discussion on open source, prosumption, innovation, and other Wikinomics principles. Thorough and full of examples.
Oscar Berg over at the Content Economy blog, shares a few of his readings from across the blogosphere. Included is Stewart Mader’s Wikinomics guest post on Wikis.
Sampad Swain defines the activities of Internet users by a ‘SOS-CAR’ model (Searching, Organizing, Scrutinizing, Collaborating, Authenticating, and Reading) and describes these thoughts as being partly inspired by Wikinomics. Many familiar themes emerge.
Going back a few weeks we can read Canadian Business’ interview with Don Tapscott, co-author of Wikinomics and chairman of nGenera. The interview discusses leadership, innovation, and how IT is changing the organization.
We’ll be back next week with more links to Wikinomics in the blogosphere!

Hi Jude
Thanks for for link-love. Appreciate it!
And talking about inspiration from “Wikinomics”, it’s very evidential from my blog post, but always wondered about the acceptibility of Wiki Culture (if I may say so) in wider scale/scope. Just some thoughts:
1. Is such a theory acceptable in emerging economies like India etc?
2. How much time does it take in finding out the acceptibility rate?
3. Does such a theory induce changes in the contemporary marketing landscape?
Some of the thoughts though. Am still in the process to understand my model to wider aspect.It’s just a blip on the radar but can turn out to be more as a change agent.
Cheers!
Stefano: thanks for the link to your Italian blog, we have a wide international audience and i’m sure it will be beneficial to at least a few people.
Sampad: those are some interesting questions. I suspect that your model for interacting with and absorbing information is influenced by the environment (e.g. India), and that it can be applied to the emerging marketing landscape, but it would depend on how you frame that Marketing influence and impact.
Thanks for the comments!
