First, let me state the obvious: all I do - is co-doing… with my partners, team, my wife and the people I meet, read, and follow. This post was, in fact, suggested by one of my partners. So here it is…
December 1991 - I write (in this paper) that “There is no … author/audience … no text, but always, and only, a con-text.” Seventeen years later (July 2008) - Umair Haque is almost there (with this strategy note)… by telling us “There is No Consumer” and by suggesting UGC should, in fact, mean “User Generated Context.”
April 2005 - I co-found Aidpage Inc (aidpage.com) - with the tag line “People Helping People.” Three years later (July 2008) - a Deloitte study (by Beeline) concludes: “The tribalization of business is all about ‘People Helping People.’”
March 2007 - I co-found People Networks Inc. About a year later (February 2008) - Dave Morgan, founder of Real Media and TACODA (acquired by AOL in July 2007), says - in a post titled “The Future: People Networks” - “To me, it’s all about the growing role of “people networks“… promptly followed by AOL announcing (May 2008) the creation of a new business unit called “People Networks.”
Currently - we work on a web service called JuiceTorrent with a tag line “Create Your Own Ad Network.”
