Mon, 21 Apr 2008 22:26:10 PDT
The People Part of Enterprise Collaboration and Virtual Teams Chuck shares some thinking about recent work at EMC about the use (or otherwise) of a taxonomy on its collaboration platform. The discussions around what they were trying to achieve ("primarily around orienting new users") resulted in different ways of doing things.

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 23:04:26 PDT
Just a few days ago, I read something about why Aurangzeb got the Kashi temple demolished. Some sundry queen of a vassal kingdom was harassed there or something. I wonder if the dhimmi so-called intellectuals really accept this as even 1% reason to demolish a temple (maybe they do) !!
