"Google is not a search engine. Google is a reputation-management system"
Clive Thompson's has a good article in WIRED about radical transparency and how some execs are dealing with it. Whether you think it is a good thing or not networked communication makes keeping secrets much harder than it ever has been and I have often argued that your best defense, as an individual or an organisation, is openness.
[Hat tip to Antony Mayfield for pointing to the article.]
Hi Euan,
Jon (www.jonmell.co.uk) pointed me to your post. It's something I'm very interested in (as you'll see from our blog).
If you liked the Wired article, you might like http://www.radicallytransparent.com/ (I always get 'Radically Transparent' and 'Radical Transparency' mixed up when searching for them). The author, Andy Beal is a great guy and really worth reading.
