OpenSocial and the Future of Social Business

"OpenSocial is a specification that defines a browser-based component model, known as gadgets, and an API for accessing information about user profile information and social graphs, including friends and activities. Applications that use the OpenSocial APIs can be embedded within a social network itself, or access a site’s social data from anywhere on the web. [Sources: Wikipedia and Opensocial.org]"

new features announced for OpenSocial 2.0 include embedded user experiences (allowing user interaction with content from external services), better support for Activity Streams, support for mobile experiences, support for OAuth 2.0 (better unified identity authorization across applications), and more open search capabilities (designed to prevent social applications from becoming new corporate information silos).
OpenSocial has gained solid support from enterprise software vendors such as Jive, SAP, SocialText, IBM, Nuxeo, Atlassian and others.

The Secret To Accenture’s Social Business Adoption Success

"There are a few sensations in life that manage to thrust us into action, or provoke us to work without a motive. Sensations so powerful that we fall victim to a form of altruistic amnesia. We’re driven by its hidden motivational forces and we forget the benefits are for someone else. In short, neither lack of advantage nor lack of compensation deter us."

- 115,000 employees have filled out profiles
- Accenture’s social business initiative also includes a broad based video strategy. Starting with Cisco’s Telepresence at the high-end and desktop video at the low end.
- Crawford and his team quickly realized that the key to higher adoption of SharePoint starts with user profiles. They found a direct correlation between the number of customized user profiles, and the amount of internal collaboration.
- Crawford began to organize ‘complete your profile’ contests and publishing stats on the percentage of the company that actually did. Soon however, Crawford realized that the profile page can only tell a small fraction of an employee’s story. The rest of the story lies in learning the details of an employee’s expertise and knowledge.
- “We started an internal recognition program to encourage our employees to contribute to SharePoint,” Crawford said, “We look and we measure how people are contributing, how they are connecting, and how they are communicating, and score them on their activities.”
- , the solution must still provide meaningful value in isolation with or without a gaming dynamic.
- but the novelty fades away if the user experience is unpleasant, no one is using it, or the employee can not find the information they are seeking.
- His team deals badges to Accenture’s employees for accomplishing various tasks or to specify how long they’ve worked at Accenture. “That’s proven popular because a lot of people enjoying see it (on their profiles),”
- There are three primary principles, he submits, in order to maximize gamification effectiveness: sufficient motivation, the ability to carry out the activity, and a well timed trigger. He continues by suggesting the most crucial aspect of these three factors is that they must all converge at the same time. Anything less, and the gamification impact is degraded.
- They’ve created an environment where points and badges are the social currency that rewards and compels employees to contribute to SharePoint.
- But however you start, and as Crawford advises, the architects of the site should know their users’ goals.
- So If your social business solution is experiencing low adoption, I’ll wager you have not created the right environment with the right incentives
