Ross Hill asked me what are the platforms that I am interested in at the moment. The first thing I said was real life, deepening relationships with other people and also with nature. Then I am interested in developing Yammer internal social media platforms in the two lines of work I am currently diving in to.

We have gone from real interaction to online social media public interaction. Now that we are comfortable with social media in a general sense, as we have been able to explore it with our friends and people of like mind on Twitter, now there is a yearning for deeper engagement with a work focus, to really make a difference in the world. Using something such as Yammer increases social cohesion in the work environment, and allows for massive increases in work creativity and productivity.

So we in Melbourne are going deeper into work, deeper into our real life relationships, and deeper into nature.

My sense is that over time, as we develop the ability for depth of engagement individually, collectively, internally and externally, in all facets of our lives, that we will simultaneously respond to all these different levels, in a natural multifaceted way.

After our conversation on the new platforms, Ross Hill and I went to buy food for dinner. We stopped at the fish shop and I asked what fish should we buy. Ross looked up and saw a friend approaching who is a food expert and said there is Tresna, lets ask her. She mentioned she had just read Ross's letter.ly on the slowing down of our current online platforms. She recommended the perfect fish to buy and she happened to be wearing a dress with a fish print. She then went on her way.

Melbourne is going deeper. Melbourne is the new platform. Real life serendipity is the new platform. #cometomelbourne, and join us in going deeper into work, deeper into relationship and deeper into life.
