I'm on a mission to reinvent online dialog, argument, and sense-making.

________________________________________

What does that mean?

It means developing the models and tools for transforming the internet's collection of scattered insights, arguments, and evidence into comprehensible, shareable structures that clarify our thinking and help guide our actions.

________________________________________

Why does it matter?

As you already know, making sense and creating clarity are two of the most persistent challenges of our time -- personally, professionally, online and offline.

The internet has become a vast collection of scattered isolated insights and fragmented arguments that languish unconnected to an equally vast array of relevant data and evidence.

No single individual toiling in isolation has the time or resources to locate, comprehend, evaluate, and synthesize these vital narratives into a coherent, intelligible whole.

What am I doing about it?

  1. I'm describing the opportunity -- and developing solutions. Find out more here.
  2. A prime destination for these solutions is the social intersection of Business, Civil Society, and Government. Find out more here.
