Longish article that outlines the changes web 2.0 is bringing to management. "It's clear that change is upon us. Through a combination of technological evolution and a continuing cultural shift toward individual empowerment, the web has become a platform that now enables and relies on the empowerment of the individual, the collective wisdom or intelligence of the crowd, the ability to create and foster social connections online, and the ability of everyday consumers to become producers of content." I agree - but this change will not be swift, will not be won without a fight, and is not inevitable.
