Information doesn't want to be free; information wants to be *timely*. And the more timely you can make it, the more valuable it is. The opportunity for an enterprise IT department is to provide access to all information as close to instantly as possible -- to make the "user experience" of corporate information approach that of a video game. This is a series of strategies for defining a project, getting it funded, designing it, and deploying it -- and in the process, creating that video game experience.
