This blog entry by Seth Godin is so good, that I had to stop myself from copying it all in here… Which reminds me of one of the definitions of perfect (when it comes to writing): not when you cannot add another word, but when you cannot take any of them away. Then you perfected it. This entry of ‘Information about information’ comes very close to that in my eyes…
“The first revolution hit when people who made stuff started to discover that information was often as valuable as the stuff itself. Knowing where something was or how it performed or how it interacted with you can be worth more than the item itself.
And why is this so valuable? Because it compounds. A tiny head start in access to this information gives you a huge advantage in the stock market. Or in marketing. Or in fundraising.
The race to deliver this essential scalable asset isn't over, it's just beginning.”
