I work for the largest health insurer in Philadelphia (from a membership perspective). Command & Control, Top-Down, Siloed. You name the classic trait, this place has it. I got the book 'Wikinomics' as a holiday present and was hooked. As part of the perverbial New Year's Resolution (and possible change in career), I decided to start researching emerging 21st century characteristics of large organizations. That has led me here. I've already lent the book to a prominent VP in the company and I hope that word is spreading about the potential value-add of wikinomic/e2.0 principles.
The Market IQ on Enterprise 2.0 by AIIM's Market Intelligence unit was recently made available, and is a free download for all who are interested.

You know that formula that computes the value of a network determined by the number of its nodes? I've never felt it was right ... or even of any use. More: I think it's misleading.
The value of a network is a) non-linear, and b) fractal. Accidents of time and space play snakes and ladders ... there are any number of tipping-points.
My basic metaphor with such systems is the bathtub full of mouse-traps: predicting the number of releases in any one time slice, or the moment of any one trap's release, or the flight trajectory of any trap or traps ... simply imponderable, and obviously so.
But we get simple formulae and then, alas, come to believe that we aren't dealing with that bathtub.
