Comment on Being human in digital communication by Alison

I’m glad you found the post interesting. You touched on one of the points made at the BL event – that we’re actually relatively early on in the development of this technology, and as such we’re in a phase of acceleration. Now we’re starting to think a lot more about it’s impact, and the rate of development may start to plateau, giving the majority more time to catch up and feel at ease. But saying that, there will always be amazing innovations that makes us feel like we’re behind the times!

Thanks Brenna. You’re not alone! It’s a common issue in creative projects. The important thing is knowing when it’s happening and making the choice as to what is essential, a ‘nice to have’, and possible within the time frame and resources. Looking forward to seeing the final website – it sounds exciting

very thought provoking. on an evolutionary level, we are still stumbling around in the dark trying to work out how to best utilise this new tool that’s been invented. But at the same time it’s scary to think how much change it has imposed on how we communicate at such an comparatively early stage after its inception! yikes.

Comment on Getting away from e-mail by Steven Bonner

I could not agree more with the rationale of this article. It infuriates me how email is still used as a collaborative tool even when working on major global projects with agencies and partners from around the world. Let’s start using the new tools and keep email to what it is good at. One to one conversations not managing projects.

You perhaps need to look at http://www.comapping.com as a perfect ‘mindmapping meets collaboration’ experience. It is proving effective in the education environment as well as business. There is alot more to it then meets the eye, and very versatile.

Hope it proves to be a useful tool to comment on on this site. thanks,.
