Open or closed
November 30th, 2005 by teemowCurrently I’m reading my friends degree dissertation about ‘Strategic management in IT: Balance between open and closed’. Obviously he is interested in my opinion, cause I always support or let’s say spread the word about anything open and I’m convinced by using open standards, the bazaar model, collaboration/syndication and so forth. So I’m really looking forward to read his conclusions about open/closed business/innovation and its hybrids. He is a really smart guy, who got into all kind of aspects on both sides.
According to this topic, I just stumbled upon this. The ror.xml format is very similar to Googles new base service. The comment says it all. Big companies tend to get more and more closed. Let’s say: ‘Big brother locked you in.’
