John Robb (@johnrobb) added more “Standing Orders” after I posted something about it earlier this month.

Here then is the complete list for your perusal and consideration:

• Break networks
• Grow black economies
• Virtualize your organization
• Repetition is more important than scale
• Coopetition not competition
• Don’t fork the insurgency
• Minimalist rule sets work best
• Self-replicate
• Share or copy everything that works
• Release early and often
• Co-opt, don’t own, basic services

Isn’t it amazing how much the success of insurgencies has in common with the growth of new Internet and software businesses? Start-ups, take note!
