… would I vote for Hillary? This is at least the recommendation after answering quickly to the eleven questions of the candidate-match-game of US Today. It reminds me of similar website offerings for the Swiss parliamentary elections in 2007 (smartvote.ch) and the German Bundestag elections in 2005 (Wahl-o-mat).
Thanks to the Wikinomics blog for this link.

If I would be an US-citizen…
Thursday, January 31st, 2008Big Think: Still Beta
Monday, January 28th, 2008Big Think is obviously an US-dominated expert networking website, at least in the current “beta” version. Please, make it a “Big Think” place not mainly for US-Americans.
The format is not that convincing: the videos are all in the same “spotlessly clean” format. Outlining an idea in a few minutes is good for an “elevator speech”, but not that interesting for debating ideas.
The context of a video is also totally lacking: no links to related information sources and people.
A search for “climate change” delivers 0 hits. So, there are no ideas of “today’s leading thinkers” regarding this topic, mmmh? A search for the category “environment” delivers confused comments from “everybody should use a reel lawn mower” to “Reduce that World Human Population”. There are currently no “social” control mechanism implemented to tag such entries, like e.g. “not useful” or “not well written”.
Green Chameleon
Saturday, January 26th, 2008I added “Green Chameleon” from Patrick Lambe to my blogroll. I came across his blog while searching for a nice picture for a “KM champion”: I found this felicitous picture of a “Super KM Champion” on his blog.
Patrick offers also videos of training and conference sessions. The one on “Knowledge Enabled Project Management” gives some good insights on this topic.
They are back and I’m back
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008Surprise of the day: while I was walking with my daughter to the kindergarten we saw a stork couple flying over our heads in the red light of the sunrise. Damn, 23 January and the storks are back from their wintering grounds… It seems not to be a singular case (e.g. newspaper article). So, they are back and send a signal: our climate changes.
And I am back to blogging and send a signal: my life has changed…
