Places I’m Enjoying

I poked around Living Code this morning and enjoyed it. A reader of my newsletter recommended a Cat Stevens conspiracy theory expounded there. The lead story today is a call for an XML standard for GUIs, which the author calls “AmbiGUI.” Gotta love it. Plus the site quotes Ambrose Bierce: “War is God’s way of teaching Americans geography.” I like the mix of tech, humor, social conscience, and word-awareness.

Prof. Tom Wilson at the Dept. of Info Sciences at Sheffield Univ. wrote to me today to point to a little grenade he tossed into a listserv recently in which he mentions that there may not be any such thing as knowledge management. Here’s his original message and here’s the listserv’s archive; look for entries in December and November. The thread is interesting if only because of the effect academic conventions have on the expression of passion.

(If anyone cares, here’s a catalog of most of the columns and articles I’ve written about KM.)
