Internet Evolution - The Big Report - Can Enterprise Social Networking Pay Off?

These apps aim to provide value in three ways.

Communities of interest spring up around subject matter rather than organizational hierarchies. For instance, a hardware engineer in Ireland who experiments with open-source software in his spare time could link to a blog on Linux started by a software developer in Australia.
