SCRMish Thoughts – A Look Back at 1st Half of 2010
I’ve been doing some thinking about the 1st half of 2010 and have some observations, some of which deserve a probably longer treatment than I’m about to give them and some of them that only need a sentence or two. They are not entirely random but they are a series of slightly disconnected thoughts on […]
Connecting the Dots Between the Cloud and Enterprise 2.0
Yesterday in Portland at OSCON’s Cloud Summit I spoke about major emerging trends in business, IT, and the Web. Specifically, I explored how Enterprise 2.0, Cloud Computing, and something known as Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) have converged on top of the same “problem space” to become the essential fabric for how we solve the business problems […]
Cisco Enters the E20 Fray – SCRM Next?
Interesting….very interesting. If you remember a couple of years ago, I did my Companies to Watch 2009 posts – and, if you remember (and I’m sure you don’t. Why would anyone but me remember? And I barely do), I included Cisco as a company to keep eyeballing. Here are some excerpts of what I said: […]
An Enterprise 2.0 Case Study: My Book
At the E2.0 Boston conference I saw plenty of handwringing about the lack of successful practical examples around social computing. I can point to one – a personal example – over the last year how my book, The New Polymath has drawn on communitie…

I am presenting at the Enterprise 2.0 conference in Boston and the Sapience conference in Cologne, Germany this week. I also get a chance to spend some time while in Boston with students at Babson College – a school which has pioneered for years a …
The Enterprise 2.0 Conference Boston 2010: Lots To See And Do
I've been attending (and speaking) at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference in Boston since before it was called that (years ago, it used to be called the Collaborative Technologies Conference.) It remains the only must-attend event in the enterpris…
TIBCO’s Enterprise 3.0 Vision
Murray Rode, TIBCO’s COO, started the TIBCO analyst day with their vision and strategy. The vision: Enterprise 3.0. Srsly. They seem to have co-opted the Enterprise 1.0/2.0 terms to mean what they want it to mean rather than the more accepted views: they define Enterprise 2.0, for example, as everything from the 80’s to 2009, […]
Web 2.0 Expo Interview with Ross Mayfield
At the recent Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco, I had the opportunity to record this video interview with Ross Mayfield, the CEO of SocialText. During our talk, we discuss interesting topics, such as microblogging and the creation of the term “Enterprise 2.0.”
Dachis Acquisition Machine Reaches the 2.0 Adoption Council
Emerging Enterprise 2.0 Consultancy the Dachis Group has just acquired The 2.0 Adoption Council. I have mixed feelings about the deal. On one hand I am happy for Susan Scrupski, fellow Enterprise Irregular and E2.0 evangelist / thought leader. On the other hand I would have preferred to see the Council remain independent – I’ve […]
The 2.0 Adoption Council is now part of The Dachis Group
What? Wow! How come?
History
Let’s begin at the beginning. The beginning of the social business (r)evolution didn’t begin in with web 2.0, it began with web 1.0 in the mid-90s. From research I published in 2000, we wrote this about the company Jeff founded in 1995, Razorfish:
Razorfish’s vision states, “Everything that can be digital, WILL be” The company […]
