Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything (Good Book)

From Alfresco blog:

I listened to the cast on Wikinomics with the author, Don Tapscott. His book is
called Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything. The basic premise is that if owners of intellectual property ignore their rights and open it up to everyone, they get far more back in terms of mass intelligence than they would have by protecting and hording their knowledge. In the podcast, he uses the example of a
geological surveyor who opened up his geological data and got free analysis in
return. He also refers to how Boeing used this concept against Airbus in the
design of new aircraft.
