last week i gave a presentation on emergent democracy to an audience  
of senior technology executives in edinburgh, the first time i've  
spoken on this subject to a mainstream business crowd. i focused on  
the impact democratic innovations would have on corporate governance  
and the relationship between businesses, boards of directors and  
shareholders. i wasn't sure how it would be received but people were  
really interested. this gives me a lot of encouragement that it's  
going to be possible to bring forward initiatives involving the  
business community.
