		<description>Haha, great post Sjors! It&#039;s funny how organizations (just like matter, actually) always seem to be a lot less &#039;connected&#039;/&#039;organized&#039; (&#039;solid&#039;, if you will) if you zoom in, than it seems on the outside.

I&#039;m not sure if completely opening up will change that though. Governments and big organizations produce tons of output. Seeing the patterns and spotting the flaws is still hard. (A lot harder than following 1000 noisy people on Twitter, for instance ;) Many people complain about &#039;information overload&#039;.  

Would it be possible that we can somehow &#039;process&#039; the output of an &#039;open&#039; organization collectively? Maybe. It will lead at an interesting world at least, with lots of &#039;organic&#039; organizations, most of them too large to comprehend by a single mind, but still seeming to act like one.

Oh well, end of rant, thanks for making me think! ;)</description>
