Eugenie Clark

There was a great post in my FB stream on Eugenie Clark-- a marine biologist who was an advocate for sharks and science.  I can remember reading her biography “Shark Lady” in 2nd grade, not only was it the book that got me fascinated by sharks but also inspired me to think maybe one day I could be a scientist too.   

Nat Geo had a great article on Eugenie back in February:  'Shark Lady' Eugenie Clark, Famed Marine Biologist, Has Died

Lawrence Lessig on the Free Access Movement

"Harvard’s Lawrence Lessig is easily the most important voice in intellectual property today, whose work — including founding Creative Commons"

Newest YouTube user to fight a takedown is copyright guru Lawrence Lessig

"Lessig's lawsuit runs through the checklist of fair use, making a case for why his lecture falls under that distinction: he used a small proportion of the song, his lecture doesn't compete with the market for the song in any way, and the lecture is an entirely new creation. Phoenix wanted its song to entertain and make money; Lessig's lecture was educational, and neither he nor Creative Commons, the sponsor, made any profit."

Meet-up:  Gurteen Knowledge Management NYC

I recently joined a meet-up group for the first time.  And I’m so glad I did!

Prior to the invitation to the group “Gurteen Knowledge Management” I had heard of neither the name “Gurteen” nor the term “Knowledge Management”. From the description on the “About” page and the title of the next topic “Breaking Down Silos Through Working Outloud”   I decided it looked interesting enough to attend a meeting and find out more...

About the group: 21,000 people in 160 countries are part of the Gurteen Knowledge Community.  Help us create a strong core in New York City.  After all, there is a lot of knowledge here to be shared!  This is a group for knowledge management enthusiasts who like to share KM practices, learn from others and improve their organizations. Knowledge sharing practices can make a company run more efficiently and increase employee productivity. Join us in sharing practices of ways you share knowledge in your organization!

The presentation at the meeting was fantastic!

I had long been a fan of Jane Bozarth’s work:

Jazne Bozarth Website  |  @JaneBozarth  |  Show Your Work (on Amazon)

But Joachim mentioned many other pioneers and practitioners of the same philosophy to check out:

Dave Winer, “Narrate Your Work” Bryce Write, “Breaking Down ‘Work Out Loud’” John Stepper “Working Out Loud:  The Making of a Movement” (TEDx video) Catherine Shinners “They Dynamics of Working Out Loud” Dennis Pearce “Working Out Loud Doctoral Thesis”

Besides a great presentation, I also really enjoyed the group discussion.  

One of the topics that we talked about that  I am particularly interested in right now is slack-
