Wikinomics in the Blogosphere
Our weekly look at what people are saying about us:
- Wikinomics has won the Highams Business Technology Book of the Year award. One of the judges, Mark Samuels, blogs about the decision with some kind words for the book.
- Doug Cornelius posts enthusiastically about the prediction markets presentation put on by Hagai Fleiman and Jeff DeChambeau at last week’s nGenera Enterprise 2.0 Conference.
- 6th grade teacher Bill Ferriter has an interesting post at the Teacher Leaders Network about using Wikinomics princples in education.
- Another teacher, who just started their blog (and doesn’t seem to have posted their name), discusses the challenges of teaching children the skills necessary for a wikonomy. (S)he also remarks at how education 2.0 innovator Vicki Davis reached out to her after she saw the blog. Isn’t it great how web 2.0 brings people together?
- And according to this guy, John McCain’s proposal for a $300 million prize for battery innovation is “straight out of the wikinomics playbook”. I wonder how Don and Anthony feel about that.
