Peter Kim's posterizing

a preposterous posterous

They don't make cartoons like this anymore

I keep trying to think of excuses for using this photo in a blog post, but can't come up with one. So it's being posterized instead.

I took this in one of the elevators of the Parker Meridien in New York, where old school movies play in the elevators. (More info here: http://www.parkermeridien.com/liftrelease.htm )

On a related note, a colleague mentioned to me the other day that she had seen an old Tom & Jerry cartoon and the characters were smoking. SMOKING! Oddly, cartoon characters can still kill, maim, and otherwise dismember each other (e.g. Itchy & Scratchy) but they certainly can't smoke anymore.

The Personal Enterprise

The personalization of the enterprise is already happening. It couldn’t be more obvious these days. People are literally carrying two laptops and two cellphones with them. Sit down in any meeting (although I notice this trend far more in the US than in Canada right now) and you can be sure that a handful of the people there will reach in one pocket for their Blackberry, and then they will reach in to another pocket for their iPhone.

The excerpt above is from my colleague @jevon - he brings perspective on social business that on the surface appears to be from an IT point of view. But I'm seeing the convergence of organizational roles here and applicability regardless of job title.

To read his entire post, click here - which I highly recommend, especially if you are not in an IT role.
