Lazard's head of strategy gave away that he was so interested in New York magazines, that if for some reason strategy merchanting ever takes a downturn, then he'll spend his life making buckets of money or communal goodwill out of Big Apple's most lucrative magazine* web opportunities. Now I am not sure I heard him identify what those were -maybe I (and a million friends of entrepreneurial revolutions) will have to visit google video and pay charlie 99 cents for a rerun. But anyway here's a possibly uplifting debate between me and you (indeed every netizen who loves transparently connecting until we discover the next big (and as Thomas Friedman and the 1.3 million reades of The World is Flat would say green enough) idea for 6 billion people to enjoy profitably working with) and perhaps him. Where's the flaw in this debate whatever culture inside New York you love most?
New York Magazines - indeed any big city's press - have been on my mind for 2 lifetimes- openly inquistive global leadership media being what my father as an economist http://ecosaintjames.blogspot.com helped to co-create, and around one of whose 30th aniversaries of hosting http://entrepreneurialrevolution.blogspot.com revolutionary network roundtables we celebrate in 2006. This intro is also how we are syndicating this conversation board's pre-eminence around 100 blogs.
The head of Lazards was on tv a few days ago saying that he had made one investment for the company he knew would compound extraordinary wealth (perhaps even an exit startegy if the rest of whatver strategy merchants do turns out to be seen as less and less valuable). Buying a New York Magazine , I think the New Yorker.
Now he was talking about a magazine when coupled to the internet can be a city's number 1 exchange rather fear for whatever the most extravagant new yorkers are prepared to pay at the click of their fingertips for when they need the recipe or other codes to action a fashion or a party around them. But think of a different city magazine. One that kept on asking what abundant economics exhchanges could we co-create with in twin-city diversity collaborations. These might include deep social value like project30000 or revolutionise global industry sectors until their exponentials uptilt to use Thomas Friedman's core economic principle of today's ever flatter world.
What could Delhi-New York innovate that's best for the world. What could Wellington-New York innovate that's best for the world. It seems to me
-and other disruptive agents of the internet
that contextual micro-communities and microfinance go hand in hand with a medium combo of city magazine and worldwide web. InterCitizens could be debating thousands of experimental concepts in the knowledge that those which made progress would be reported back all round the city through the glossy magazine and its chattering classes. Now Mr Murdoch, how about this beyond media? http://value100.blogspot.com I promise you that it is exactly how one (the first wholly global leadership) press media returned 100 times shareholder investments over a generation by compounding 1000 times value across societies.
