 Purse Lip Square Jaw: From Government to Governance
Adam Greenfield's The minimal compact: An open-source constitution for post-national states, "a minifesto for the constitution of virtual, post-national states."
Instantiations are free to supplement the core agreement with an arbitrary number of articles appropriate to local contexts, and are further invited to submit such innovations to a central (but distributed) registry for prospective enactment by other signatory communities, or potentially adoption into the core framework.
Adam calls upon the rhizome and opens new lines of flight, but could have gone further to explain the relevance of the following criteria for governance: flexible, adaptive, extensible, infinitely reproducible, nonlocal, interoperable and mutual.

 The Original Blog - Comments on Emergence fantasies
Adam is correct, Richard: your tone is insufferable.
Now you’re jumping from “speaking in your name” to an attack on the party system, and you still aren’t addressing the question, which is the quality of decision-making in a direct system vs. a representative system.
There is one person who is displaying snide contempt, avoiding a real discussion, using big words (aren’t online dictionaries great?) to seemingly add authority to his voice, who is arguing from a profound lack of understanding of how we developed the system we have.

No sooner had I responded to John Barlow's invite to join the new social networked called Multiply than I got an LOL message from Adam Greenfield, who had just post-mortemed the social network thing.
Adam makes it clear that he's speaking for himself, and I don't share his well-articulated skepticism, though I can't say I get a lot out of the social network sites.
Every time I register at one of these sites and look around, I find somebodies I've lost track of, and that can be a plus for me. I also find it cool that people post images – often very good digital photos, so my online life is increasingly visual.

Adam Greenfield's written a fascinating piece on Koolhaas/OMA's new Prada store in New York - from a usability perspective.
Jakob Nielsen and Miuccia Prada were always likely to prove unlikely bedfellows - the mind boggles - but many of Greenfield's observations about the sheer impracticality and lack of, well, usability hit home, particularly given Koolhaas' casting of his architecture as all-encompassing gesamtkunstwerk and platform for accompanying book(s).
