Notes

  1. 1.

    Data based on: Hopkins (2009), Top500.org (2008), Time Warner (2008, p. 4), Nielsen (2008, p. 2). Newburger (1999, pp. 3–6[0]).

  2. 2.

  3. 3.

    Gloor and Cooper (2007) also use this peer-to-peer property in their definition of collaborative innovation networks, but this definition is limited by its proximity to traditional definitions of Communities of Practice (Wenger, McDermott, & Snyder, 2002).
