  One Way To Look At Social Computing blog, Enterprise 2.0, Social Networking & Collaboration, social software, social_media | Comments Off

  Lately, over the past couple of months, I have been doing a high number of customer briefings and traveling a lot. The workload increase has been noticeable for those following me either via this blog or through Twitter. One of the slides that has been well-received is one that I use to peel away the different terms associated with social computing.
