Weapons Of Mass Collaboration
,----[ Quote ]
| The dominance of Windows was questioned by 40,000 volunteer developers, with
| Linux, open source becoming a new way to innovate. The otherwise strangers
| became partners with sheer joy of sharing. The “Linux philosophy” is being
| applied in large enterprises as well, which now feel even larger by including
| supply chains in their innovation. In P&G’s “connect & develop” program, new
| concepts are discussed with experts located across the globe, but are at
| arm’s length in a virtual world.
