Google Engineer: “Google+ is a Prime Example of Our Complete Failure to Understand Platforms”

Last night, high-profile Google engineer Steve Yegge mistakenly posted a long rant about working at Amazon and Google’s own issues with creating platforms on Google+. Apparently, he only wanted to share it internally with everybody at Google, but mistaken shared it publicly. For the most part, Yegge’s post focusses on the horrors of working at Amazon, a company that is notorious for its political infighting. The most interesting part to me, though, is Yegge’s blunt assessment of what he perceives to be Google’s inability to understand platforms and how this could endanger the company in the long run.
The post itself has now been deleted, but given Google+’s reshare function, multiple copies exist on Google’s own social network and elsewhere on the web.

Oggi in piazza a Carpi, in occasione del “Festival della filosofia”  Stefano Rodotà, giurista e Professore Emerito di Diritto Civile all’Università La Sapienza di Roma parlava di bioetica. In questa occasione, ho preso molti spunti per parlare di un argomento a me molto caro e cioè il social networking.
Tantissime volte mi viene chiesto: “Ma questi social network, che cosa sono? Sono utili? Sono pericolosi?”.  Anche nel mio mestiere, le aziende stanno entrando di prepotenza nei social networks per aumentare le proprie capacità relazionali (senza migliorarle però, purtroppo). Il tutto quasi come a considerare il fenomeno come “mezzo” e non già “luogo” e come occasione di business e non già di conoscenza.
