2007-11-01 07:07  Du sollst den Fremdling lieben wie dich selbst
Wenn ein Fremdling bei euch wohnt in eurem Lande, den sollt ihr nicht bedrücken. Er soll bei euch wohnen wie ein Einheimischer unter euch, und du sollst ihn lieben wie dich selbst; denn ihr seid auch Fremdlinge gewesen in Ägyptenland. Ich bin der HERR, euer Gott. (Leviticus 19,33-34) Was kann ein Land schlechter ertragen: zu viele Flüchtlinge oder zu viel Hartherzigkeit gegenüber Flüchtlingen Was der Mensch sät, wird er (früher oder später) ernten. Was wir derzeit säen, verspricht keine gute Ern …

John Perry Barlow beschreibt den Stand der Bemühungen um eine "Unabhängigkeitserklärung für den Cyberspace" nach 10 Jahren: TEN YEARS AGO, WHEN hyperbole was the last word, John Perry Barlow’s A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace was compared by many to Thomas Paine’s The Crisis, which signaled the beginning of the American Revolution. Writing for Wired magazine, Barlow heralded the rise of the digerati. In turn he was trumpeted by them for delivering the seminal pronouncement of the …

What might be some of the circulating and emergent debates about 'Indo-Caribbean-ness' in the contemporary Caribbean and its diasporas that offer new and compelling theoretical insights into broader questions of identity and difference How is 'the Indo-Caribbean' constituted in and outside the Caribbean, and across multiple conceptual boundaries How do discourses of 'race,' gender, class and sexuality collaborate in and inform the production of Indo-Caribbean identities How do the legacies of co …

Seminar with Michel Bauwens at Copenhagen University today. Bauwens is the head of the P2P Foundation and a full time advocate of p2p as a new, emergent form of social dynamic on all fields of human endeavors. Read more on his arguments here. http://www.ctheory.net/articles.aspxid=499 While Bauwens has lots to say on social production and its properties, I would like to situate the phenomena in a less utopian and world changing context. But that's just where our styles differ. Here are my reflec …

In this age of continuously emergent technology, the greatest danger lies in assuming any particular application or platform is limited to any one particular use. Forget what it says on the box: the more urgent question is, do you need it, and why Call center technology is in a time of rapid change and innovation, as technology allows agents to work from homes all over the world, and simultaneously brings the robot ever closer into the center, with advanced speech recognition and synthesis, and …

2007-10-11 09:54  A Martyr in Gaza: Rami Khader Ayyad
Randall Buth in a post at ETC notes the wanton killing of Rami Khader Ayyad, the director of the bookstore of the Palestine Bible Society in Gaza. Bibbiablog has far more information on the killing, from an article in Corriere della Sera, the Italian equivalent of the New York Times. Below the fold I provide details in English translation. ETC s labels for the post, let it be said, are spot on: œBible Society, Christian, Islam, martyr, Middle East. The Bible Society s Gaza bookstore was set on …

In addition to blogging, I've also begun to contribute quarterly pieces on everything open (from open source to open standards to open business models) at Livre.nl which is a Dutch content portal focused on the same topics. For those who can't read Dutch I've posted my contribution for the 4th quarter of this year in English, below. I wrote it last month, so it's probably considered a bit dated from the perspective of the blogosphere but might still prove worth a read. For the record, I'm not fl …

Enterprise 2.0 social networking capabilities can help organizations capture unstructured tacit knowledge to improve knowledge management and collaboration across the enterprise. Andrew McAfee, Associate Professor, Harvard Business School, defines Enterprise 2.0 as the use of emergent social software platforms within companies, or between companies and their partners or customers. Social software enables people to rendezvous, connect or collaborate through computer-mediated communication and to …

2007-10-08 15:29  A Two Schnase Day!
My first one was in the sermon - I was preaching on being "ashamed of the Gospel" as in the Timothy reading for the day. Toward the conclusion, I Schnasied the congregation with my current favorite: "At some point, followers of Jesus must decide whether they will listen to the wisdom of the world or to the wisdom of God." I equated being ashamed of the Gospel with listening to the wisdom of the world. I think it worked pretty well. The Gospel makes some doctrinal claims and expects some disciple …

Merchants complain about paying 2% for payment processing, most of which is interchange, yet, according to a new report by Deloitte, they are willing to pay 7-9% to companies like Google that envelop the e-commerce payment transaction within the online shopping context and actually deliver sales. The study looks at online purchases only, but I am excited about how the same ideas can be applied to real-world purchases. Last week, at Welcome s 2007 User Summit in Dubai, several banks gave presenta …

I wasn't sure that I would post this here, as I've since made my peace with it. But I thought maybe y'all would be curious how I handled the whole c-section thing. And, I like to be open and honest. So here you go. It's not the light reading you're used to here, but it's something. Almost one month ago, we met our little girl. When the day started, I had no idea that's how it would be, but that's par for the course with this pregnancy; it's all been unexpected. Mostly, what we hadn't expected wa …

2007-09-18 17:15  Emerging and True
A nice little essay on truth and the emergent sensibility in the current Next Wave E-zine. Here's what the author, Kester Smith, has to say: I love my wife. Now, imagine the integrity I would lack if I took the approach that stated that I not only have never doubted that love, but can prove, on paper, that I love her. It would be absurd. Now, imagine the hope I would lack if I took the approach that stated "well, I think I love my wife...I'm pretty sure she loves me...although how can you ever r …

2007-09-13 15:00  Hospitality
My first encounter with the concept of the "hospitalist" was a sour one. As with many of my long-held medical beliefs, I eventually came to another way of thinking. (You may have read about my own gig as a surgical hospitalist, and about the fact that it was a period of unmitigated pleasure for me.) But that first time -- which involved the medical iteration of the concept -- was a bummer; not for what it was, but for what it wasn't. When the internal medicine department of my clinic announced t …

This is rambling and all over the place, but I think I will post it anyway, as it tries to make sense of a lot of the reading I have been doing lately, and which I haven't previously mentioned in this blog. SF writer Chris Moriarty, whose excellent novel Spin State I have just finished reading, notes on his website that the most fundamental distinction in science fiction as a genre is "the division between writers who view sf as being primarily about science and writers who view sf as being prim …

I am McLaren of Borg. Your theology, as you have known it, is over. We will add your confessional and missional distinctiveness to our own. Your theology will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. A friend noted to me today that the leaders of the Emergent Church behave like the Borg. He's absolutely correct. The difference is that McLaren is a bit more subtle. He doesn't inject your neck with nanoprobes that turn you into an emergent church drone in minutes, and he doesn't fly through spac …

The last session I went to on Tuesday was a fascinating one, all three talks were about peer-to-peer support, but each approached the issue in very different ways. The first was by Carol Wakeford of Manchester. Carol had been involved in supporting 30 students doing non-lab-based projects in their final year degree. As part of a CETL funded project the students were tasked with creating e-learning resources for their own curriculum. While each student had a one-to-one academic supervisor the pro …
