Enterprise Technology Reborn
Sam 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.
The Ten Words That Define You
Sam Lawrence from Jive Software is on a roll. His latest blog post, 10 Thought Leaders Boiled Down to 10 Words, holds a few folks in this space (including me) to the words we use on our blogs. The cloud was fascinating to observe, and there were some great people mentioned in the post, including Robert Scoble, Jeremiah Owyang, Shel Israel, JP Rangaswami, and more.
My 10 words, by the way, were:
- People
- Social
- Things
- Networks
- Time
- Media
- Great
- Make
- Community
See what the others had to say, and, recreate what Sam did. He shows you on the site.
