Yesterday I tweeted (@carlfrappaolo) about a Boston Globe article on ECM search company, Endeca. I was going to let it go at that; congratulations Endeca for getting the attention of the Sunday Globe and for having the popular press cover the fact that search is more than just findability and Google, that search can be [...]
An article in today’s Boston Globe, reports that a new regulation will compel bloggers to disclose any affiliations or gifts they have received.
As Web 2.0 matures, it will be more regulated. This is an issue I have blogged and spoken about many times before. But what makes this article even more interesting to me is [...]
Today I had the great fortune to attend the Center for Information Management Studies (CIMS) program at Babson College. I almost didn’t go – having just returned from the Enterprise 2.0 conference, I was feeling a bit “full” of talk on collaboration and technology. But luckily three things coerced me into attending.
1. The event was [...]
Yesterday I was preparing for an Innovation Management training session I will be doing later this week. The sponsor, after reviewing my credentials asked “How you make the leap from information and knowledge management to coaching/developing innovation
skills? … Your background seems to be IT.”
I provided what I hope was not too lengthy a response. In [...]
Last Friday’s cover of the Boston Metro proclaimed “ How recession is forcing creativity in entertainment.”
It’s an interesting article on how the current economy mixed with the advent of Web 2.0 is affecting the entertainment industry, but the title held a different appeal for me.
Serendipitously, I am working on IAI’s soon to be released whitepaper [...]
In 2008, Dan Keldsen and I published on behalf of AIIM, a groundbreaking report on Enterprise 2.0. One of the more startling and fundamental facts that we uncovered was that age did not matter as much as folks thought, as it relates to the adoption of Enterprise 2.0. In fact it really didn’t matter at [...]
I have said it before, as have many others, Enterprise 2.0 is not just about technology. As I have commented on, this was a common theme at this year’s Enterprise 2.0 conference. Indeed, if web-based collaboration were only about the technology, then any organization with even a modest IT budget would be doing it and [...]
IAM Alert: Amazon.com has announced a “definitive agreement” to purchase the ecommerce, “powered by service” Zappos.com for 10 million shares of Amazon stock (current market value of $807 million). (see the Letter from the CEO – Tony Hsieh – to Zappos employees, describing the drivers and benefits behind the acquisition)
Amazon has long been held up [...]
In 1964, Marshall McLuhan coined the phrase ” The medium is the message.” I have often quoted McLuhan in my writings and presentations, in agreement. But, I fear far too many take his message the wrong way, which can and has lead to serious repercussions.
Yesterday I was watching to a video podcast interview between two [...]
Last week the annual Enterprise 2.0 conference was once again held in my home town, Boston.
Like thousands of my colleagues
I came, I saw, I commented.
So, why has it taken me so long to blog about it? Well, in addition to the usual – “I have been busy” excuses (truthful as they are), I also am [...]
