Sharing on Flipboard
Flipboard aggregates articles from social media and other web sources and displays them in a magazine-like format. It is designed for elegant presentation on the web and mobile devices.
Three Tips for Sharing Articles via Email
1. Gather Articles using Pocket or Evernote Web Clipper
Pocket and Evernote Web Clipper are programs that run in your web browser that allow a one-click method to save articles you think you'll share later. Both Pocket and Evernote web clipper allow you to add tags to saved articles. At Causeit, we use tags to categorize articles by our orbits (is this article relevant to our partners in the automotive industry? Would it appeal to futurists?)
2. Explain why you are sharing
Always provide background as to why you're sharing this article. Starting with "This article seemed relevant to our recent conversation about..." is a great way to start the discussion.
3. Maximize the Potential for Email Forwarding
Your thought partner may want to share the article with their own network. Make it easy for them by writing the email in a way that makes it appropriate to forward. Leave out any personal comments you or your thought partner would feel uncomfortable passing on to their network.

5 Ways to Cultivate Thought Partnership on LinkedIn
1. Post an Article on your News Feed
This may be the quickest way to keep a conversation going with your professional network. LinkedIn has a status update feature similar to other social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter—you can post interesting and relevant articles from the front page by clicking "Share an Update". Then, simply copy and paste the URL of an article you'd like to share, view and approve a thumbnail preview of the link, and add your own commentary in the text box below.
Tip: for each post on LinkedIn you have the option to share with Everyone, Connections (only 1st degree connections) or Everyone + Twitter (which will conveniently push a post to Twitter and draw visitors to your LinkedIn page).
The Social Network of Things - MJ unpacks the core ideas of the SNT in this recent interview with TIA
During his recent visit to talk with members of the Telecom Industry Association, MJ was interviewed about cyborg anthropology, digital business platforms, innovation and the Social Network of Things. In this nine minute video, he unpacks some of the core concepts, opportunities and challenges that we are engaging with in our current work:
- What is the Social Network of Things, and why is it important?
- What does it mean to move from IT as a utility to informatics as a capability?
- How do shifts in how technology is used—and what it's capable of—change the way companies do business with each other and with their customers?
