Leadership, Politicians and 2.0.

In Chile, we are close to elections. Both presidential and parliamentary. Since is our 1st election after the Obama's great success, and after being reading a lot about communication, web strategy, social marketing, massive collaboration, leadership, and so on, it makes impossible to not to recall all the articles ever read about Obama's strategy, and read about the post war analysis, so we can get a nice critic view of what is being doing locally, and how good or bad are the results.
So far, the low quality of the webpages, and the zero understanding of social technologies is the rule. Seems pretty much like the so called "Dot com revolution" when people thought that only raising a web page will make their bussiness sky rocket. Sadly, the same phenomenon is happening with people trying to start their very own world wide rave, but without wanting to leader it. We have the tools, the people, the (misguided) willingness, but we have no leaders at all, and the politicians, that should be natural leaders and jump into the new challenges to make the country a better place.

Searching for the official web pages of the candidates, one took just one "I'm Feeling lucky" seach. The second one took me 3 searches, and the last one, took me full 60 seconds of search with no result at all. Guess something is wrong... espect me reporting about this in the near future.

Back on Posting

It's been a few weeks since my last post. I've been solving some really important issues. Things like the way my career should go, how to make money for my personal projects, how much academy and how much business and a lot of things more, including studies... a bit of Artificial Intelligence, some Business Intelligence, a lot of marketing and enterprise creation.
Of course I haven't forget about my beloved books. Wikinomics was finished more than a month ago, and Tribes: We need you to lead us was after that. Of course I'm posting my very own review of both pretty soon.

Right now I'm defining my next project. Have several good choices, every one of them as good as the former, but with different aspects. That's the problem. Hope to make my mind soon and be back on the hardcore posting. I guess that tomorrow will be up the Tribes' review. A pretty good book, short and neat that absolutely deserves a comment.
