McKinsey Survey of Web 2.0 Use

Yes, deployment is critical and no easy feat, nice to see that intrinsic benefits are gaining awareness

Snip: "Many companies experiment with Web 2.0 technologies, but creating an environment with a critical mass of committed users is more difficult. The survey results confirm that successful adoption requires that the use of these tools be integrated into the flow of users’ work. Furthermore, encouraging continuing use requires approaches other than the traditional financial or performance incentives deployed as motivational tools."

Avoiding the Enterprise 2.0 silos: smoothing the quilt

Interesting discussion on the slow adoption of mash-ups in the enterprise - I agree that "this situation need not be".

Snip: "[...] Using a portal technology, which supports interportlet communication [...] an organization can create a composite application based on the Web applications which have proliferated. We are functionally and technologically there already. And it really isn’t all that difficult to implement [...]"

Mobs Rule! : Andrew McAfee’s Blog

Andy McAfee asks himself why prediction markets haven't taken off so far ...

I agree with him about the bewilderment and can only say that 1. there are quite some (technology) vendors postioned in this space and 2. you can achieve quite a lot with plain (open source) social software already.

Snip: "The evidence is mounting that corporate prediction markets work as advertised, delivering quick, accurate, and decisive predictions in areas of great interest. Furthermore, the evidence so far also suggests that they work better than current corporate forecasting techniques, at least in some circumstances. So are there any good reasons left for not using them, or at least experimenting with them? I ask seriously: why would any enlightened company not avail itself of this technology? Can you come up with any legitimate reasons not to jump in with prediction markets?"

Tangible Benefits of E2.0 - Part 1: The Bad News (Fusion ECM)

This is the first part of the "Tangible Benefits of E 2.0" series at the Oracle ECM Fusion blog.

Funny, I expected something more suitable for selling Oracle software - the post is down-to-earth and while not telling the Enterprise 2.0 crown anything new I dig the realism (find a problem first, then think about ypur E 2.0 take et al.).

Shouldn't be too hard to find some pressing problems in todays organizations, huh?

roi enterprise2.0 adoption implementation

  • Much of the failure is coming from organizations jumping on the band wagon without any idea of where it is going or how to drive it. Simply implementing technology for technology's sake will never work.
  • If you are only looking to "buy some E2.0", go home. Study up some more. You are more likely than not to fail and that will make my technology look bad and you wont want to buy any more from me. And therein is the first lesson learned: Purpose is Preeminent. Don't bother with the technology unless you have a business problem it is designed to solve.

Reconciling social computing with the enterprise

Dion writes about how to bridge the gap between the social collaboration world outside and classical organizations.

Strategies and battle plans "how to proceed", I am with this but have doubts at the same time.

To me it's probably about the benefits of aiming high (you might achieve at least a bit) vs. procedding with cautious little steps? We all know it's about the social dimensions in the first place with Enterprise 2.0, where both approaches have their up- and downsides ...

Participation Inequality: Lurkers vs. Contributors in Internet Communities (Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox)

via @DT and as a very welcome reminder, the classic Jakob Nielsen text on participation inequality, aka 90-9-1 rule, complete with visualizations ...

Myself, I have always argued that
1. this is more about the internet, and less about intranets et. al, so Enterprise 2.0 people don't need to worry THAT much
2. 90-9-1 is a deeply pessimistic view on things (alas, you decide whether it's pessimistic or realistic), in the enterprise we should go for 100-100-100 always (and yes, we can)
