"If we are going to do any good with the collaborative work tools that computers provide, it is going to involve significant changes at all levels of our social system and our organizations" -- Doug Engelbart. Then and now, Engelbart understood that the most profound changes to result from his inventions were not hardware or software innovations, but social innovations - new ways for people to think, communicate and work together.
