Transformations
- Writings
from my favorite computer ace, Doug Engelbart, and his current organization
to facilitate corporate thinking. Some interviews
with him. He is the inventor of the
mouse, GUI windowing systems, outline processing systems,
hypertext,
shared-screen teleconferencing, composite-graphics-text computer files
and Augment (a collaborative work environment) and all this in the late
1960s! A man 25 years ahead of his time. Now he is trying to teach
Bootstraping,
a way for human organizations to cope with complexity and urgency using
these technologies.
- Favorite
scientist - Richard Feynman. You probably know
him as the practical one on the Shuttle Disaster Commission. Some
know him for his diagrams, drum playing in Brazil, working on the
atom-bomb
and safe-cracking. Did I mention that he got a Nobel Prize for
equations
about the "wobbles"? ;-)
