Research and Platforms

Today we presented in Perth. Always a wonderful venue. Thank you to everyone for making this a great event. I hope that it lived up to billing.

This entry relates to platforms and research effects. Ok Jon. What are you talking about this time?

The evolution of an electricity grid gave way to Punch Cards. A certain company called International Business Machines built their core business from this.

The evolution of telephones gave rise to CATI.

The evolution of early internet - dial up and ADSL gave way to on-line survey forms.

And the evolution of broadband is giving way now to a new platform - the internet as a way to deliver opportunities for participation and co-creation.
