Wow! The follow-up on this is amazing! I’m really impressed that you all went out of your way to find my web site and link to it in this post. Most people will simply publish the Twitter handle and a link, but Best Buy took the time to include my real name to boot!

Edson, if you’re reading this, you made a great choice with Best Buy!

Thanks for the update, Barry. Your work came up in my presentation at a PR 2.0 event recently. One of the interesting comments I overheard that day: Best Buy is using open source for HR. What you’re really doing, in my opinion, is using your community to build value. For Best Buy. For your team. And ultimately, for your customers.

Now that’s smart business.

Thanks for the shout out Barry.

I think Crowdsourcing the Emerging Media Job Description is a great example of thesis number 64 in the Cluetrain Manifesto:

“We want access to your corporate information, to your plans and strategies, your best thinking, your genuine knowledge. We will not settle for the 4-color brochure, for web sites chock-a-block with eye candy but lacking any substance.”

Way to go BBY.
