Typology of Actors in NetoCracy

There's a very unclear typology of actors in Netocracy : the eternalists, the Nexialists and the curators.

As far as I can tell :

  • Nexialists are nodes in the network, equated with entrepreneurs and, I guess, people who have traditional, non-network derived value. They understand (or are) the value at the nodes? (Actually no, the word seems to mean more "connectors")
  • curators manage the arcs between nodes. Curators control who belongs to a network, and consequently have the power of inclusion and exclusion. They understand (or are) the value of the arcs.
  • eternalists see the networks' network nature. In fact eternalists can't help seeing things as networks. They even understand their own being as being a resonance phenomenon washing over a network confluence of memetic and genetic nodes. They understand the value of the dynamics or flow within the network.

(THIS EXPLANATION SUCKS, AND MAY BE WRONG. CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT WITH THESE TYPES?)

Otherwise we may be better off with another typology such as Mavens, Connectors, Salesmen. (Do Mavens map onto Nexialists and Connectors onto Curators?)
