Enterprise Technology Reborn

June 19, 2008 · Comments

Sam LawrenceSam Lawrence has quite a powerful post today about enterprise technology. He’s writing about the way collaboration inside the enterprise used to be file-centric, but with tools like Jive’s Clearspace, collaboration has become people-centric.

I’m a big believer in how Jive sees the enterprise collaboration space. From my perspective, Jive has their passions in common with Mzinga, another favorite collaboration/community platform. There are differences between the two companies (I know – I attended the shoot out at Enterprise 2.0), but in both cases, I see their efforts as being about making people the center of the process.

To that end, read Sam’s article here. I think it explains the space VERY well.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

  • Absolutely. Jive is the leader in enterprise collaboration.
    I really appreciate what they're doing.
  • If this space interests you, check out Workstreamer.com. It integrates these spaces into a global community and gives you a social aspect simultaneously.

  • Wow. Thanks for the post, Chris. I too am a big believer and support as many folks pushing the social software movement forward as possible. We need more players, more innovation, and more customers evangelizing their gains. It's about raising all ships as you prove all the time yourself. Appreciate the post, greatly.
  • Chris - thanks for the shout out. It's an honor to be mentioned a) on your blog and b) in the same breath as Jive. We here at Mzinga are a huge fans of the Chris Brogan brand!

    We are also big fans of enterprise collaboration and see it as a huge driver of change within organizations. At next year's Enterprise 2.0, we hope that it's talked about as something everyone is doing vs. what they hope to be doing.

    Best,
