As it befits a rainy Sunday, a short online article about being online.
But, as this month the main line of articles (”Change2010″) is built around the “patterns” theme, I will shift the focus from just being online, to… being online, i.e. from the status of being on the online systems, to the choice of how to be there.
So, where should I start? Identity only is a “fluid” concept- almost anybody I know has multiple identity.
Next week I will start publishing some “what if” segments derived from my previous Maximizing costs, minimizing ROI article.
As today is Sunday, before starting with the first what-if in this series, I wanted just to share some writing ideas.

AGB2009: a creative workplace
BACKGROUND
Over the last few decades, creativity, or its development, became an industry in itself.
ABSTRACT
I have a systemic (or “holistic”, if you prefer) approach to change: no initiative lives in a vacuum, and is constrained by time and environment.
The starting point has therefore often to be the end: in our case, why do you want to introduce creativity in the workplace.
When I was living in UK, I remember an advertisement from Inland Revenue: taxes do not need to be taxing.
I think that every taxpayer would agree- actually, it is one of the reasons why whenever available, I try to use only electronic services.
So, how do you generate “value added taxes”?
No, not by increasing the VAT.
But finding creative ways to generate unexpected benefits.

AGB2009: creative burden sharing
BACKGROUND
In my activities with partners, we had occasional mismatches between the skills, the budget allocations, and the actual needs.
ABSTRACT
Map the partners and interests involved in international initiatives.
You will be surprised to see how the “geometry” of the parties involved lacks any symmetry.
BIBLIOGRAPHY
A slightly unusual bibliography- more an inspiration than a reference
If you create or write or think and share your ideas… maybe this posting could save you time and money 
One month ago, I published online the draft outline of a series of book and writing concepts.
One of the concepts had a geek sci-fi ring about it, “memories of the cloud”.
Or- how seemingly unrelated news items can build a completely different picture, just few years down the road
Some creative writing for the past present future
I registered only the outline/prologue/concept of few writing ideas that are actually behind the design and structure of this blog.
So, you joined a club. Did you know that they assume that you are working for them?
