Fritjof Capra, in his book ‘The Hidden Connections’ applies aspects of complexity theory, particularly the analysis of networks, to global capitalism and the state of the world; and eloquently argues the case that social systems such as organisations and networks are not just like living systems – they are living systems. The concept and theory of living systems (technically known as autopoiesis) was introduced in 1972 by Chilean biologists Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela.

"So how can we look to nature and use all the abundant examples to help us optimise our groups and organisational communications to create real value in our social networks, to build or shape networked businesses that are built for resilience? “Companies of the future are ones that view their organisation as a living, vibrant, emergent organism interacting within a living, vibrant, emergent ecosystem. The resilience of the organisation is interdependent on the resilience of its business ecosystem. This brings a shift from linear, atomised, supply-chain thinking to interconnected, holistic, ecosystem thinking."

When I wrote this piece in early 2011 I had no idea of the ride it was about to take me on. After Marc read and comment on this piece he offered to let me drive his very cool car - Scoop.it.
I've learned more about driving Internet marketing in the year since than from any tool I can name, met great people and found a magical tool. Little did I know the twister that was about to hit called content curation and Scoop.it.
