Coté at the People over Process blog has an interesting series going on about Management by Feeds in response to Marshall’s recent post here pointing out some of the areas that might make Management by Feeds difficult to adopt.

I have some strong opinions on the points Coté raises here that I plan to post a little later on once I have the time to write them, but in the mean time, check out his posts:

Part 1: Feed Filtering

Part 2: Getting Social Behind the Firewall

Part 3: The RSS Golden Hammer

My favorite quote so far:

we’re trying to use the software to strengthen the social bond that you would otherwise build face to face. As I said early on, this is one of my key understandings/desires of social software: a proxy and amplifier for what you would do face-to-face.
