I found it interesting, but sadly the dialogue has been too vendor driven, with plenty of verbiage from the [...]

I blogged that Alan Patrick and I were running the only enterprise related event as part of this week’s “London Social Media Week“. Considering we only had the idea a week last Friday at Tuttle, and only promoted the thing with a few tweets, I’m both impressed and surprised that we had around 50 attendees [...]

Yesterday I got the “lowdown” on how Thingamy, which Sigurd Rinde describes as a “Work Processor”, has just been connected to ESME, the microsharing and collaboration platform.
