DISQUS

It's more about "effectiveness" rather than "efficiency", but existing businesses run on an efficiency ethos, which means often we join their game to play the game...but instead you're saying be more pure and sell the effectiveness method...am I right in your understanding. It's all about connecting to what you need when you need it (better than email)...but also the knowledge transfer (which goes beyond knowledge sharing), in that using social tools we can probe, clarify, re-frame and re-contextualise someone else's know-how.

Totally agree, I posted on this a while back, in that Enterprise 2.0 is a really big statement.

Rather than knowledge hoarding we would have a culture of knowledge sharing and transfer, and I'm not talking in social computing islands or just in a horizontal way. I'm talking one of the company top-down strategies and performance measurement is based on group effort and your collaboration and networking efforts. Social computing are the tools or the way to achieve enterprise 2.0...this may take 10 years.

This would be a true change from the industrial age to the network age, one based on adaptability, innovation, effectiveness, sustainability, and human purpose, rather than efficiency, economies of scale and homogenisation (which has made us consumers, rather than people).

At the moment I doubt companies will include this is their mandate or performance reviews, but workers will continue social computing islands, and hopefully this bottom-up approach will gain enough momentum and display benefits, that the powers at the top finally make it part of the ingrained culture in an official way.

It's about social productivity, it's about emergence, it's about sense-making, it's about adapting...at the moment companies are not tapping into people's know-how effectively...it's like only using 50% of the features on a machine...people need to be able to self-organise and tap into know-how beyond the cubicles they can see, and companies need to be able to crowdsource ground zero, and apply that input to solve issues, new strategies.

Social computing is doing these things now, but is it the ethos of the company.

Awesome Mary,

It seemed you had been blogging for long than that...you have really made an impact in such a short time.

Congratulations

Hey Daniel,

I have a post similar to this called Instead of sending an email...

Matt Moore has a presentation on re-purposing email

I see you have linked up this post to from a while ago to a tweet I made yesterday...very clever. I'm avoiding calling this km3.0, as it's just the next phase of km2.0 where the we make existing tools have wiki-like type features, yet it's not a wiki...actually I might post this now.

Hi Jason,

Can you take a look at my post on Twitter command issues and give me a hand understanding precisely how it works
http://libraryclips.blogsome.com/2008/01/17/twi...

The idea is a more detailed version of your tweet sheet

I add you a Pownce friend...I'd like a coupon code for Hellotxt mobile if you have any left

Thanks
John

Hi guys,

I published a very similar post today:
How I use the various micro-blogging services
http://libraryclips.blogsome.com/2008/02/05/how...

You could even filter it at ZapTxt or Rasasa and have the feed delivered as SMS or IM:

Also check out FAQQLY, they have a feature called "shares".

As you know this is a Q&A service (you can only ask a question to your friends network, or you can travel around asking questions on other user spaces...they also now have groups)
