No windows, just a view of coworkers typing on their laptops and placing calls to check on the status of their projects. It’s difficult to know what’s happening outside of your surrounding area."

For what it's worth, 26.11.2009: Google Wave killed the ECM star

For what it's worth, 26.11.2009: Google Wave killed the ECM starby parapadakis:
"If Google Wave succeeds as a corporate platform (and I see absolutely no reason why it wouldn’t), it will fundamentally change the ECM industry.

McKinsey: What Matters, 27.10.2009: Using technology to improve workforce collaboration
by James Manyika, Kara Sprague and Lareina Yee: "Knowledge workers fuel innovation and growth, yet the nature of knowledge work remains poorly understood—as do the ways to improve its effectiveness.

Technology and workflow processes support knowledge worker success and are increasingly sources of comparative differentiation. Those able to use new technologies to reshape how they work are finding significant productivity gains. This article shares our research on how technology can improve the quality and output of knowledge workers."
