			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You wouldn&#8217;t know it from my posting frequency but I have been quite busy in my research. In an effort to develop an understanding for the <a href="http://blogversity.com/recruitomatic/category/recursion/" target="_blank">recursive nature of blogging</a> and its value, and reconcile <a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/pierre-joseph-proudhon" target="_blank">Pierre Proudhon&#8217;s</a> notion that &#8220;<a href="http://advice.cio.com/node/209" target="_blank">property is theft</a>&#8221; with the persistent nuisance of <a href="http://many.corante.com/archives/2004/03/24/interview_with_ken_jordan.php" target="_blank">walled gardens</a>  &#8212; or is it the perennial nuisance of <a href="http://www.google.com/search?num=100&#038;hl=en&#038;rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS230US230&#038;sa=X&#038;oi=spell&#038;resnum=0&#038;ct=result&#038;cd=1&#038;q=site:+identity+2.0+walled+garden&#038;spell=1" target="_blank">persistent identity</a>? &#8212; I am in danger of missing out on the increasingly popular YouTube <a href="http://searchquant.blogspot.com/2006/10/shameless-using-youtube.html" target="_blank">gimme-juice</a> phenomenon. Phew!</p>
<p>I came across this example from Cisco which illustrates the point &#8212; take your pick from any one of those above:</p>

<p>Ah, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:The_Human_Condition_1935.jpg" target="_blank">human condition</a> and the <a href="http://www.cisco.com/web/thehumannetwork/index.html?POSITION=sl&#038;COUNTRY_SITE=us&#038;CAMPAIGN=HN&#038;REFERRING_SITE=CISCO%2ECOM+INDEX" target="_blank">human network</a> are becoming indistinguishable. <a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/003360.html" target="_blank">What a bummer</a>.</p>
