"Annotations. Related to the above - how do we build in-line comments and discussion to the web? see this thread. I embed hypothesis on my site but it’s clunky and not really designed as a commenting tool…"

"How to encourage / support and nurture more people writing online (outside / in addition to platforms like Twitter)"

"How do you create learning environments, experiences and platforms that make learning actually stick?"

"Streams - For me this is twitter and is more than enough stream for now."

"Campfires - For me this is the blog here (and more broadly the blogosphere that I read and engage with)."

"Gardens - This is where there’s a gap for me personally. No place to store and evolve deeper longer-term thinking. Many of my friends have gravitated to Are.na but I just can’t get it to work for me."

"Stock is the durable stuff. It’s the content you produce that’s as interesting in two months (or two years) as it is today. It’s what people discover via search. It’s what spreads slowly but surely, building fans over time."

"And the real magic trick is to put them both together. To keep the ball bouncing with your flow—to maintain that open channel of communication—while you work on some kick-ass stock in the background. Sacrifice neither. The hybrid strategy."

"This one might be the most important. Creative research is all about collecting the dots."

"And we can only hold a tiny number of things in our brains at once."

"So a space for collecting (and organizing) the dots is a crucial foundation for thinking, creativity and more:"

"But ideas aren’t summoned from nowhere: they come from raw material, other ideas or observations about the world."

"Hence a two-step creative process: collect raw material, then think about it."

"Firstly - apparently, folders and files is the “best in class” tool (better than tags and search) for personal information management"

"Because of this, information scientists suggest other methods: search, more flexible than navigating folders; tags, which allow multiple categorizations; and group information management."

"Yet Bergman and Whittaker have found in their pioneering personal information management research that these other methods that work best for public information management don’t work as well for personal information management."

"Collaborative blogging. Blogging still feels very single player. Despite the fact that almost all of my longer writing goes through Google Docs and a heavy process of notes, comments and discussion - when I publish a blog post it’s “flat” in a way that a Google Doc is “alive”."

"How do we get more people blogging? Networked writing relies on… the network!"

"Digital gardens / wikis / community publishing. My own personal digital garden / wiki has languished and I’m thinking about new ideas, new solutions etc here."

"How might we create easier ways for small groups to publish / maintain knowledge in public?"

"Power & Status. I’m fascinated by how power flows inside organizations. How do you see the shadow org chart?"

"Narrative strategy. I’ve riffed on this a bit but there’s so much more to unpack here. This might even end up being my second book"

"Learning that sticks. How do you create learning environments, experiences and platforms that make learning actually stick?"

"Since so much of the SEO MBA curriculum will be around “soft” skills and tacit knowledge how can I design experiences that embrace this tension between online courses and in person 1:1 tacit knowledge."

"Bookmarklets. I’ve been writing little bookmarklets for a long time, these days they’re mostly used for things like scripting my static site."
