Thank you for turning me on to Ms. Gill.

From your site I linked to Google talks and found out more about her ideas, her books, and just great stuff I otherwise would have never found without your link.

The internet truly is an online learning tool.

If nothing else comes out of social darwinism’s collective ideas online, I believe exactly what I’m doing here, biofeedbacking to you, is reason enough to do it.

Where is all this going?

Who knows?

And that’s alright too.

Thanks again for sharing.

I think the important thing here is what is done with all this intelligence, however it is aggregated. Collaborative intelligence, is as useless as collective intelligence if neither of them are tapped and used appropriately.

So often the intelligence (in whatever aggregate) is there. It’s how it’s used/applied that is the practical issue in solving the problems mentioned here.

Frankly, it’s that part that incurs politics and I’m afraid to say that political interference negates all the care and attention given to aggregating the intelligence however it is done. This has been witnessed at local level and at international level and even at the global level in recent past history.

I do not have a solution to this. But I recognise that it is at least as important as deciding how to aggregate the intelligence of a large group of people, either considered individually or otherwise.
