		<description><![CDATA[It is Friday, so this is a slightly longer article: as for the title, jump to the last section, or wait a couple of thousands of words.

The purpose? Describing through practical cases how writing could be used to improve the learning experience- and, on the flip side, how writing could actually obfuscate information, while formally releasing everything that is required.

The principle being: first, observe; then, judge- if you do the other way around, you risk a selective observation, and to focus only on what you already saw before, ignoring new possibilities.

This is a side-effect of acting based on experience (i.e. patterns): if the communication is structured around what sounds familiar to you, you can be easily mislead into ignoring information relevant to your decision.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this <a href="http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/08/31/change2010-pattern-based-vs-systemic-change/">third article</>: we are are all consumers- individuals, groups, and, yes, corporations- and the "C'" in the title stands for "consumers": so Consumers' Social Responsibility (C'SR).

Over the years, the legal framework protecting consumers evolved, potentially giving to any consumer the same rights- but, of course, I, as an individual, cannot (usually) afford to pay lobbyists and other "consensus shapers"; and the "greening" of the economy is almost becoming yet another marketing opportunity.

I will not repeat what I already presented in <a href="http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2010/09/13/consumer-3-0-a-k-a-chaotic-mutual-dependency/">Consumer 3.0</a>, on how we gradually shifted from a passive consumer, receiving what was on the menu (1.0), to one choosing from a limited set of options (2.0), to influencing what is actually available in the kitchen.

		<description><![CDATA[Do you know what is outsourcing? If not, have a look on wikipedia.

But if you do: when and how do you define what to outsource?

You can search on this blog, and you will find plenty of articles where I discussed various issues related to downsizing and outsourcing, both on the business and corporate culture side.

this article is focused on something else, that is visible in my CV, but even more in my pre-banking (i.e. pre-1987) and non-profit activities.

If you have no time: go for the conclusions :)

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it started in February, and now it reached 100 postings. And 150 twitter postings (between <a href="http://www.twitter.com/robertolofaro">@robertolofaro</a> and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/aleph123">@aleph123</a>).

As you know, this is a knowledge-sharing platform, not the usual 2-minutes-a-post blog.

This post is something slightly different- and it is also <b>an announce</b>.

This Summer, I will publish an updated version of my work on the introduction of new media and technologies in business processes, including both profit and non-profit/government/institutions.


Meanwhile, to celebrate the 100th post on this blog, I enclose a "virtual library" of references: books, links, short advice.

Enjoy! And post any comments via direct messages to my twitter <a href="http://www.twitter.com/robertolofaro">@robertolofaro</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am glad to announce that my customer officially released the book I contributed to via my company <a href="http://www.partnershipincubator.com">PartnershipIncubator.Com</a>.

The contribution was a concept on social networking online in marketing, extracted from research prepared over the last few years.

The book has been focused on "digital natives", and you can order online <a href="http://www.sappi.com/SappiWeb/Initiatives/Sappi+Life+with+Print/Sappi+Life+with+Print.htm
">online your own (free) copy</a>

But being part of their book was only the first (sideline) step toward completing the publishing plan.

And now, we are moving from long-run politics, to a new model.

Instant gratification politics. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[this document is just an introduction to the subject, and therefore it is in a "bullet list" format, with a main <b>issue</b> introducing each bullet list.
<br /><br />
it was presented on 2008-09-28 (WGAW Registered) as a proposal for concept for a chapter on "social networking: security issues", as part of a wider book on "network security", but eventually I had to withdraw from consideration my concept.
<br /><br />
my original material is published here, with some limited changes, due to the evolution of the subject, and to make this posting as self-contained as possible.

And this is a partially correct assumption.

Without knowing, you too belong to probably more than one "gated community".
