Part economic soothsaying, part state of the union for mass collaboration, Macrowikinomics is a reasonable overview of, and partial blueprint for, bringing the attributes of openness, transparency and participation to social and political structures. Although it addresses critics like Jaron Lanier (author of ‘You Are Not A Gadget: A Manifesto’), the book still does not offer much insight into the politics and pitfalls of large-scale open-source projects, something that may have tempered the extremely optimistic — and yes, inspiring — view of our planet’s (possible) future.

DID NOT FINISH Bought at Waterstones, 4 Jan 2011 This seemed like it would be interesting, but it's a follow-up to their Wikinomics book, which I probably should have read first. The idea is interesting, about how crowd-sourcing, open-ness and collaboration makes for good practice, but it does seem to be a bit selective, bending events in the world to the theory (e.g. they claim that peer-lending systems are brand new and a great example of this, handily forgetting the Credit Union). In the end, this was proving an effort to read or even get down to reading, so I'm letting it go. In a brilliant follow-up to their previous book "Wikinomics", authors Tapscott & Williams provide a cogent, thought-through and effective blueprint for using the principles and practice of mass collaborations, as enabled through the Internet, to the pressing issues of our societies, nations and the world. Anyone who is interested and concerned about world affairs, including the current (2009-10) financial crisis, mortgage and finance fraud, national and international governance, business recovery, innovation, and just about anything else should read this book! sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
In their 2007 bestseller Wikinomics, Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams taught the world how mass collaboration was changing the way businesses communicate, compete, and succeed in the new global marketplace. But much has changed in three years, and the principles of wikinomics are now more powerful than ever. In this new age of networked intelligence, businesses and communities are bypassing crumbling institutions. We are altering the way our financial institutions and governments operate; how we educate our children; and how the healthcare, newspaper, and energy industries serve their customers. In every corner of the globe, businesses, organizations, and individuals alike are using mass collaboration to revolutionize not only the way we work but how we live, learn, create, and care for each other. You'll meet such innovators as: -An Iraq veteran whose start-up car company is "staffed" by over 45,000 competing designers and supplied by microfactories around the country -A "micro-lending" community where 570,000 individuals help fund new ventures-from Azerbaijan to the Ukraine -An online community for people with life-altering diseases that's also a large-scale research project Once again backed by original research, Tapscott and Williams provide vivid, new examples of organizations that are successfully embracing the principles of wikinomics.
