SocialText Blog, 27.08.2009: Enterprise 2.0: Skip the Pilot

SocialText: "There's an orthodoxy in Enterprise 2.0 circles about how you're supposed to run an implementation. The orthodoxy goes something like this: Start with small-scale pilots, define your business objectives, watch the pilots closely, evaluate their success, make a go/no-go decision. (A good recent articulation of this view is in Chris McGrath's post on 8 Tips for a Successful Social Intranet Pilot.)"

I’m Not Actually a Geek, 01.10.2008: Tim O’Reilly Course Corrects the Definition of Web 2.0
by Hutch Carpenter: "I define Web 2.0 as the design of systems that harness network effects to get better the more people use them, or more colloquially, as “harnessing collective intelligence.” This includes explicit network-enabled collaboration, to be sure, but it should encompass every way that people connected to a network create synergistic effects."
