About

Blog Interdependent Thoughts maintained since 2002 by Ton Zijlstra.
European citizen in a networked world. Based in the Netherlands, living in Europe, working globally. There are no Others. There is just me and many of you.

I write about how our digital and networked world changes how we work, learn, decide and organize. I explore the tools and strategies that help us navigate the networked world. I am passionate about increasing people's ability to act (knowledge), and their ability to change (learning). Key-words: open data, open government, fablabs, making, complexity, networked agency, networked learning, ethics by design.

- State of the Net 2018 Announced Mid June will see the 2018 edition of State of the Net (SOTN) take place in Trieste.

- Location Based Services Can Do Without Maps At the Communia Workshop (organized by the Open Knowledge Foundation) yesterday and today we talked about opening up government data sources for the wider public, so others can build their own mash-ups and applications with that data. Most of the existing examples shown were map-based one way or another. That led to some discussion, with […]

- Tech Question: SMF and RSS A quick question on the off-chance that someone of you might have the answer, or a pointer towards one.

(See the picture of the poster we made at the end of this posting) As one of the organisational attitudes I put […]
