For many IT admins, business as usual is a juggling act. Job schedulers and scripts run on autopilot, applications and operating systems can’t speak the same language, and other tools—like RPA or MFT solutions—operate in isolation. On a good day, everything runs smoothly. But good days are rare; more often than not, something goes wrong and you’re stuck putting out fires.

For the last few years Richard Watson of NowandNext has created annual trend maps based on city subway maps. This year he has been more ambitious, creating a highly detailed map with five time zones, ranging from 2010-2015 out to 2035-2050. For the previous three trend maps (shown at the bottom) I collaborated with Richard and we co-branded them with Future Exploration Network, however time pressures this year meant that I haven't directly contributed to the 2010 map.

When I started writing my book Living Networks in early 2002 I thought that it was important to demonstrate that the concept of 'living networks' was not just a metaphor, but a reality: we, together with the networks that connect us, are literally a new life form. To show this I drew on the literature on autopoiesis , which was proposed as a new way of understanding the nature of life, and wrote a lengthy introduction to the book.
