“Access trumps possession. Access is better than ownership.”

– Kevin Kelly, Founder, Wired

This is the incredibly prescient KK from 2009 on the power of access.

Of course, this message speaks powerfully for the opportunity of social/open business; and what tools like ESNs (Enterprise Social Networks) offer: giving others access to shared knowledge trumps possession/ownership of the same.

Gosh, I hope there are “Aha!s” all round.
