As Legume Diagram methodologies continue to emerge I think it is intriguing to consider Legume Diagrams and a new "communications medium" and then to think of creators of diagrams as "authors" in the this new medium. Today's update to the Legume Technologies website stimulates such thinking with the encouragement to "Share Your Wisdom – Change the World." The idea is that because Legume Diagrams can be easily created you are more likely to create a diagram (write a Legume Book) than you are to write a traditional book. The process of creating the diagram itself stimulates thinking about the problem/issue at hand tweaking your thoughts for better outcomes. Some have found creating the first diagram to be a bit intimidating and co-authoring through authoring services is a good entry point. Would you like to change your world? Let's create a diagram.
