Lessons learned from public infrastructre planning are certainly appropos with SocMed. An orderly and graceful flow of both information and vehicle traffic are core to everyday life. The better planned they are, the less they&#39;re noticed.janetbshttp://openid.aol.com/janetbsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381062955895390564.post-68859463962092554202009-07-23T00:34:46.331-04:002009-07-23T00:34:46.331-04:00@Jeffrey, thanks for inspiring this post. I am glad it is helpful. <br /><br />@Jana, good extension of the analogy. I know that sometimes *I* need to offramp from this discussion, too. :-)Gwynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09025302694449095642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381062955895390564.post-13911326891134950212009-07-22T21:04:58.812-04:002009-07-22T21:04:58.812-04:00I like it too. Traffic circles have off ramps, so from a records perspective when it is time for the information to go away (for whatever reason), it can happen smoothly. If information that was taken off temporarily needs to get back on, it is not a big deal.jana gallatinhttp://jitc.fhu.disa.mil/recmgtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381062955895390564.post-78847719918252237802009-07-22T17:19:30.161-04:002009-07-22T17:19:30.161-04:00Love this post! I&#39;m proud to have been your 7:00 caller. :)<br /><br />Your mental model is so, so apt.
