• The Davos Question. This time the Davos Question goes online. As the Google blog posted on the 18th of December:
  

  Every year, many of the world’s top leaders from politics, business and the global community — including some of our own — attend the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to discuss how to make the world a better place. This year, we wanted to give people around the world the chance to join them, and help them, by submitting their own answers to “the Davos Question,” which is: “What one thing do you think that countries, companies or individuals must do to make the world a better place in 2008?”

  Until now the official Davos Question YouTube blog, has only one post, but I’m expecting more movement after the holidays. I have already expressed my skepticism, but nonetheless I am looking forward to observe reactions; reactions of the public, of the Davos ‘leaders’, reactions in general. I’ll keep you posted. [Did I say that I find it cool, that popular bloggers are also taking part in the Davos Meeting?]

• Google Knol. Shortly before Christmas Google surprised us again. It announced the plans of a new platform of knowledge, where authoritative figures will write articles about their specification. Since then a great debate has risen, discussing the project; [indeed it was one of the posts that "...elicited more reactions in terms of views and linkbacks"] its competition with wikipedia, its authoritative model and its potential in general. To be honest, I’m dying to see where this thing goes (if it actually goes anywhere).
• Hyder’s challenge. My personal favorite this one. On the 18th of December Hyder (Everybody GoTo) opened a poll, where everybody could vote a challenge for him (beginning a new blog or getting 100 RSS subscribers in a week among others). Well results are out, and his challenge is to launch a new blog and get 100 subscribers in a month. Will he make it? I don’t really care if he does or not. Its all about the process. And if the process is well documented, then every blogger will have lots to study. Cool, eh?

What’s your virtual self waiting for?

Happy New Year
