One small thing - I don't think face to face necessarily accomplishes more - it accomplishes differently. We are used to gathering (in person and online) but the increased connectivity and cultural comfort with (and increased amount of) 'exposing' ourselves virtually allows for a whole different kind of conversation to happen. One that can even without the presence of the author/contributor. The way we combine and leverage this stuff into the context of a specific conversation is very interesting and we're only just beginning to even get a sense of what this might be. Fun... and yup - people who get human interaction/social systems have a huge contribution to make in the coming years. Looking to see where you take this! Dan – great stuff.

This emerging space of face-to-face meets online collaboration is definitely challenging. I've noticed how many Johnny-come-lately Web 2.0 types keep on emphasizing the technologies and glossing over the individual and organizational behaviours that both support and inhibit effective collaboration. We need more knowledge, better practice and more importantly lots of experimentation. I hope that all of us working in this emerging space eat our dog food and publish our experiences and share our knowledge - online and face-to-face! :) Great post, and thanks for the shout out.
