I finally uploaded Linkosophy on SlideShare.
Or you can download the 6 MB PDF version.
(Thanks to David Fiorito for compressing it down from its formerly gigantic size!)
Giving this talk at the IA Summit was a blast; I’m so grateful for the positive response, and the patience with these still-forming ideas.
If you’re after some resources on Communities of Practice and the like, see the post about the previous year’s presentation which has lots of meaty links and references.
I’m looking forward to seeing where the conversation goes from here!
NOTE: You need to view this in “Full Screen” mode, which you can only do from the SlideShare page itself. Otherwise, the narrative text isn’t readable.

Nice job, wish I was there to see it.
