We definitely need better models of complex system events. Here's
another, to help imagine growth as a spontaneous evolutionary process,
as if an organizational 'fire' that begins with a 'spark' of change.
It's obvious enough that growth systems produce rapid change in complex
systems without

I like your model, and especially so if we can figure out ways to drill down
analytically into the various levels of data that should be found in the
period between Before and After. And I just may use it in a lecture in a
few weeks (with all due attribution, of course).

The Carrot Clustering Engine is getting pretty good:

The idea is simple: the results of standard search engines are too
unstructured. The Carrot project has been doing a great job of very
fast clustering .. fast enough s
Glad you like it! Sometimes a model works better when it's not
completely consistent with the facts. The beginning of growth is never
a big event, but calling it 'an earth shaking boom' conveys the
significance of it's as yet undiscovered future.This one also plays
a little loose with switc
