I agree that you are correct regarding Open Marketing and its future presence and impact. I have noticed over the past few years the great growth of YOUTUBE as a form of expression in video terms for those that find that medium more comfortable to their style of expression rather than blogging. It provides a sort of a mini reality show for people who need and want to get their message /talent/opinion: out to the world. A great example of personal video blogging is if you recall the AI UK Star Susan Bolye and her voice was heard around the world on YouTube before she had won the contest. She literally became a star celebrity over night. This is powerful marketing and branding that was never available to the common man. Mark Hi Mike,

Put Wiki on the list of options for connecting, collaborating and marketing. Good point: "Open source, most commonly used to describe software, is more of a cultural concept than a technical specification" Enjoyed this Mike. Made me pause and ponder a bit more. Using the graphic to emphasize the big picture and flow... excellent. Appreciate that you took the time for this one. I will give it a tweet and LinkedIn shout. :) Mike Mike,
