So how does distributed cognition apply to corporate learning. Gina Minks works out the implications. "Maybe some of it goes back to information-seeking behavior. Techies have their own language, history, culture. We have our own distributed memory, our own languages that invoke that memory. If a n00b doesn't have the language to ask some 133t techie a question, they may dismissed as unimportant... If I'm asked, why doesn't it work? I say, 'because it hates you'. Not because I'm being mean, but this is how I learned to start figuring things out on my own."
