The video is a terrific example of combining statistics, dat…
Another week and – here in southern Australia at least – one of extreme contrasts, with very heavy rainfall followed by blistering sunshine. Not sure if the same is true of the week’s collection of Tweets and links, but find it for yourself, anyway. Usual categories, of course.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, innovation and suchlike:

More enterprise-architecture stuff, this time about the relationship between trust, value and money.
This starts from a Tweet by Swedish consultant Oscar Berg, which triggered off a back-and-forth flurry:
oscarberg: The main currencies of business have always been information & trust. They let us exchange favors, goods/money […]
That’s not the most appropriate title. My intention is not to dub another type of Enterprise Architecture (least of all one that sounds like a holiday package).
