	Interestingly, the move by Sprint was a publicly orchestrated maneuver. They made this publicly on purpose, perhaps to send a message.		Interestingly, the move by Sprint was a publicly orchestrated maneuver. They made this publicly on purpose, perhaps to send a message.

			One interesting aspect is that number portability is actually a VRM-style victory for the Sprint matter. If these users were being denied their phone numbers, it would be a much bigger problem, as phone #s are significant identifiers and linked intimately to identity.


	But perhaps these people were calling just to have someone to talk to.		But perhaps these people were calling just to have someone to talk to.

	Mark Earls' 'Herd' touches on the importance of man as a social animal. One of the thing we've been missing has been the social, human aspects of VRM, enabling rich human relationships in contrast to the automated analysis and profit maximizing of CRM...

	On of the things we've seen through the information age explosion is that there is money to be made in them thar Geeky hills. Geeks used to be uncool, but the Internet made them rich and hip. So you can sell into the geek world today in a way you couldn't 20 years ago. There are perhaps companies in that loosely defined area that might want to be a part of these.		On of the things we've seen through the information age explosion is that there is money to be made in them thar Geeky hills. Geeks used to be uncool, but the Internet made them rich and hip. So you can sell into the geek world today in a way you couldn't 20 years ago. There are perhaps companies in that loosely defined area that might want to be a part of these.

			Folks who are more likely to be online today have created a whole new market for products. Perhaps it would behoove us to think about how we can work with this market.

			An added benefit of this group is that they are tryers. They download stuff: plugins and browsers and new tech. If it weren't for them, Skype and Firefox and ICQ wouldn't exist.

			It may be that the issue is less about which companies are good matches--there are hundreds if not thousands who want to reach this market. Rather, the leverage point could be who inside these companies are in the right place--both in terms of product development and their career--to take VRM and make a gamble on it. We are ready to move from hobbyists to early adopters--the traction with CardSpace and Higgins and OpenID indicate that we are ready to move to the next level. And early adopters are folks ready to bet their career to integrate a new technology that will lift their company to the next level. How do we find those guys.

			One answer might be workshops. VRM workshops will flush out the early adopters.

			We also probably need to more clearly communicate VRM before CRM folks will sign up.

			VRM needs to be appealing to the "V" side to create the value for the "C" side.

			===Personal Health Care===
			One area where there are clear pains right now is in the personal health care space. Not only is there motivation to change it, but it also has true problems with disconnected data. Doc is already making progress with Johnson and Johnson and Revolution Healthcare. If we can identify a few additional large players who are ready to take action, we might be able to catalyze development in this area, much as in the same way as getting NPR involved in the public radio initiative energized a large force towards VRM goals.
