Allegiances

May 15th, 2008 by John Wonderlich · No Comments

A quick post to point out something I’ve noticed.  Open communications structures lead to expanded roles, which leads to unusual allegiances that form outside formalized power structures.  For this reason, the Open House Project has seen alliances between all of the following despite the immensely different incentives under which they function:

  • New Media Staff
  • IT staff
  • administrators
  • politicians from the left and right
  • bloggers
  • technologists
  • non-profits
  • business figures
  • lobbyists (well, some lobbyists)
  • citizen advocates
  • public interest advocates
  • academics
