Chez les développeurs, trop de connexions freine l'innovation
Viktor Mayer-Schönbergeren est persuadé, dans le futur "nous verrons apparaître des poches d’équipes réduites avec moins d’interconnections et un mode de pensée moins grégaire". Elles pourront ainsi prendre plus de risques et s’aventurer à essayer des solutions plus radicales. Il est également urgent de réintroduire une certaine compétition entre les différentes équipes de développement. Et de faire évaluer les projets non par des pairs - comme c’est l’usage - mais par un panel d’experts évoluant dans des domaines légèrement en retrait de celui étudié.
Sustaining Software Innovation from the Client to the Web
Despite the current strength and promise of the Internet software market, the future pace of growth and innovation is not assured. The principles of choice, opportunity, and interoperability were important in the growth of PC software and in the overall health of the information technology ecosystem, and these same principles will shape competition in Internet software, according to HBS professor Marco Iansiti
-
firms should allow consumers and partners to have a real choice between complementary products and services from otherwise competing firms
-
specifically, opportunity that is facilitated by giving developers platform access and the ability to innovate and build on platform technologies to create new products and services.

A Curious Case of Enterprise 2.0
When was the last time you used a sequence of dot-separated numbers to describe a large official organization? Yet all the talk about Government 2.0 doesn’t seem to surprise anyone. The lack of surprise however doesn’t imply shared understanding. Just try asking ten people who use the term Web 2.0 what exactly it means – and most likely you will get ten different answers.
-
AIIM’s year-old survey, which found that 74% of surveyed organizations had no idea what E2.0 meant or how it could be meaningfully applied, likely would’ve come back with a similar numbers today.
-
E2.0 is still primarily a vendor space, dominated by ISVs selling software to businesses who haven’t really asked for it. It is simply not a demand-driven market. By contrast, just think of CRM or payroll software. You don’t need to convince businesses they need that.

The Content Economy: XX is dead, long live XX
Somewhere in this book Clay says that the transformative potential of a technology on society is realized when that technology becomes boring
Is Social Media 80/20? | The Relationship Economy......
While 20% of the value proposition of social technology lies within the technology the greater influence lies in relational value attributes and processes of the people and company’s that use it to produce something of value. Who truly understands the dynamics and impact of social technology on business relations, marketing, sales, operations etc. etc..?
KMWorld.com: : Enterprise social Software technology
While agreement around the core concepts of "social software" has remained elusive, the underlying phenomenon is quite real. To date, industry analysts have quite properly focused on the cultural and organizational aspects of social software technologies (blogs, wikis, tag clouds and such) in the enterprise. "The sociology is more important than the technology," you often hear, and I couldn’t agree more.
But the technology still matters, and it turns out that social software tools differ substantially in functionality, maturity, approach and support. Moreover, social software applications have raised concerns in the enterprise: around privacy, security, intellectual property (IP) protection and compliance. IT managers also face more prosaic but equally important considerations of reliability, scalability and sustainability of the software and vendors alike. So let’s look a bit more closely at what constitutes social software.

- External scenarios involve social networking and collaboration with people primarily outside your firewall.
- Internal scenarios focus on activity that takes place primarily behind your enterprise firewall. We say "primarily" because in practice enterprise networks can get fungible, especially where collaboration is involved.
We break the 11 scenarios down into two broad categories—external and internal:
-
Internal scenarios include: project collaboration, enterprise collaboration, enterprise discussion, information organization and filtering, knowledgebase management, communities of practice and enterprise networking.
External scenarios include: branded customer communities, customer/reader interaction, partner collaboration and professional networking.

The Future of the Desktop
Everything is moving to the cloud. As we enter the third decade of the Web we are seeing an increasing shift from native desktop applications towards Web-hosted clones that run in browsers. For example, a range of products such as Microsoft Office Live, Google Docs, Zoho, ThinkFree, DabbleDB, Basecamp, and many others now provide Web-based alternatives to the full range of familiar desktop office productivity apps. The same is true for an increasing range of enterprise applications, led by companies such as Salesforce.com, and this process seems to be accelerating. In addition, hosted remote storage for individuals and enterprises of all sizes is now widely available and inexpensive. As these trends continue, what will happen to the desktop and where will it live?
Quand l’informatique sert à amuser les informaticiens
Tant et si bien qu’on attend l’étude qui, à l’instar de certains PGI qui plomberait la compétitivité, montrerait que les entreprises qui utilisent Notes sont, dans un monde où il est de plus en plus utile de pouvoir changer de cap rapidement, aussi agiles et insubmersibles que le Titanic.
Many-to-Many Structure Flexibility vs. Stiff One-to-Many Hierarchies
With project management 2.0 tools, you can start with one task, add fifteen more, organize them, add more tasks, reorganize them and repeat the process on a daily basis. When all team members walk through this process, you start to bring the power of many to work in your planning process. Many-to-many structures emerge with the help of team members’ collaboration.
Making business sense of unified communication

The Value of Knowledge - Part III
As long as software is viewed as a expense that must realize short-term returns, corporations will be paying over and over for similar business function without the benefit of reuse. You will never make that shift from what we presently call management of information, viewed as technical efficiency, to an asset management perspective. The expense of acquiring information capabilities must change to become a means for gaining knowledge capital.
Is Enterprise 2.0 about selling software or solving problems?
So the future I think we should try to avoid is one where the solution to every problem is to buy software. [...]
[Tools] real value will be in the way these are moulded to individual and group needs within the enterprise to create truly situated, native tools that support both existing and new ways of working better than enterprise software ever has before. But even that is worth little unless we can also succeed in engaging people and weaving these tools into the social and political fabric of the organisation. Software can't fix that.
Vendre !: Pas de jeu sans enjeu
La vente de biens immatériels comme par exemple des logiciels d'entreprise (business-to-business ou B2B) comporte une difficulté majeure : connecter l'acte de vente au métier de l'organisation cliente.
