It is my favourite phrase of 2007 (looks like I am 4 years late on it though). Where are the interviews with the others posted? I would love to listen to them.

I found it really valuable to have an old fashioned conversation, and I like ther punch of a 15 minute segment. May try it again going forward. BTW, I used the clip of you talking about "permeable organizations" in my Horizons talk: http://flickr.com/photos/cogdog/1804474761/in/set-72157602800010208/ though technically, Benkler merely quoted the work of Barry Wellman-- "Communities and societies have been changing towards networked societies where boundaries are more permeable, interactions are with diverse others, linkages switch between multiple networks, and hierarchies are flatter and more recursive....they cycle through interactions with a variety of others, at work or in the community. Their work and community networks are diffuse, sparsely knit, with vague, overlapping, social and spatial boundaries."
