Entrepreneurs, web 2.0, and new media.

Posted on Sep 15th, 2006 by alina : visionista alina
If you would like to see some inspiring videos about young entrepreneurs across America, take a peek at the Entrepreneurship USA Week website, which hosts stories, profiles, resources, activities, and encouragement for young entrepreneurs in this country. Taking a more global approach, the FLOW project will be hosting a Peace Through Commerce event, building on their broader strategy of encouraging and assisting entrepreneurs everywhere to make the world a better place.

If you are looking for a defining theme in this blog post, I am about to disappoint you, since there is only your imagination to connect the topic of entrepreneurship to web 2.0 and new media. If, however, you imagination is 2.0, then you've probably already realized that the web and new media is one of the great frontiers of entrepreneurship right now.
  • Andrew P. McAfee's article, "Enterprise 2.0: The Dawn of Emergent Collaboration", offers insight on the new marketing and media frontier of emergent collaboration. How much more Hayekian and humble can we get? It's quite beautiful.
  • Bill Ives blogs regularly about portals and knowledge management at his appropriately-titled blog, portals and km. Much food for the thought-inclined there.
  • UnManagement shares resources and tools with organizations interested in engaging decentralized, network-based ( as opposed to hierarchical) management models.
