Social media, politics, copyright, blogswarm and activism
“So, Disney is the evil empire, not only spewing unpleasant radio, but using copyright to stamp on the precious freedoms of a blogger. Clearly large media companies need to think twice about heavy-handedness when dealing with bloggers. Score one for bloggers I guess. Yes, but…hang on a moment…”
Enterprise Web 2.0 » Jakob Nielsen Hates Enterprise 2.0
“Jakob Nielsen has issued his annual 10 Best-Designed Intranets list. I guess we’ll have to take his word for it since you have to pay $174 to download the pdf to see the screenshots. But, his post explaining why he selected these particular intranets is peculiarly unconvincing and in some cases downright scary. He seems to think, for example, that a more “editorial approach,†by which he apparently means more corporate control of both the message and users, is a good thing. With the future of intranets clearly pointing to Read/Write, Nielsen is promoting the idea of more intermediaries and more control.”

How can Enterprise 2.0 work right now?
I have just finished writing a reasonably large (12 page) report on how to get started in the enterprise with Office 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 toolkits. I am aiming to help people in Sr. Management positions start to understand what is possible now that wasn’t possible 2 years ago. I originally started writing this to help some of my old consulting clients, who have been asking for help, but I have not been able to shift my focus away from Firestoker to work with.
It contains 2 case studies examining Teqlo as a low cost IT tool and a real-life firestoker.com case study. I have altered the company name and some information in the Firestoker case study until a proper release is in place.
Please consider this document beta, and feel free to pass it around. Feedback is appreciated.
