‘Twas serendipity whot brought me here.
In the generalised mobius strip that is the blogosphere, investigations into the nature of Enterprise 2.0 took me quite naturally into a curiously passionate debate on the meaning of serendipity.
I’d rather not take sides (I’ve noticed a small but potentially potent vein of zealotry in some of the views and I don’t have enough conviction on this subject to risk being branded a serendipitous heretic) 
however I think I broadly agree with Steven Johnson’s view, especially his response to Nick Carr’s response. (Possibly influenced by the fact that he authored one of my favorite books.)
In any event I believe that embracing the immense possibilities embedded in the very idea of serendipity has unambiguously and positively shaped my life. I don’t really have the time or the inclination to tell my life story here but those that know me will, I hope, understand what I mean. And for those of you I’ve yet to meet, just think, what a great way to start a conversation. Call it planned serendipity.
