Predictions for enterprise social software and social network analysis Enterprise, Enterprise 2.0, Social Media, Technology trends, Web 2.0, blog, gartner, predictions, socialnetworkanalysis, socialsoftware | Comments Off
Gartner has released five interesting predictions for social software. Here are the predictions along with a few of my thoughts. By 2014, social networking services will replace e-mail as the primary vehicle for interpersonal communications for 20 percent of business users.

Coming from a financial markets background, I’d seen from as far back as the late 1990s that email as a primary medium was resulting in communication breakdown. I’ve long believed that shifting communication out of email was one of the main ...

Social Graph Engines (Updated) Enterprise 2.0, Social Networking & Collaboration, blog, social_media | Comments Off
Back in June, I posted some information on social graph engines triggered by my interest in Google Pregel. I still expect this area of social analytics to be a key capability organizations will need to focus on as they deal with large-scale processing of social graph data.I came across the info below (related to an Apache project) and thought I would pass it along: Apache HAMA: An Introduction to Bulk Synchronization Parallel on Hadoop Apache HAMA: An Introduction toBulk Synchronization Parallel on Hadoop View more documents from Edward J. Yoon. Welcome to Hama project Hama (means a hippopotamus in Korean) is a distributed scientific ...

Year-End Thoughts On Enterprise 2.0 Social Software (Part 2) Enterprise 2.0, Social Networking & Collaboration, blog, social software | Comments Off
In my last post, Year-End Thoughts On Enterprise 2.0 & Social Software, I wanted to provide a background context on some of the areas where Enterprise 2.0 remains ambiguous: Enterprise 2.0 is not a market. Enterprise 2.0 is perhaps best thought of as a collection of principals, organizational practices, and adoption methods that enables emergent participation and contributions models. Enterprise 2.0 is not a project. By this, I mean that organizations should not undertake Enterprise 2.0 initiatives for the sake of "doing Enterprise 2.0.
