Over the last couple of days, two rather interesting, and noteworthy, articles over at Technology Review, written rather nicely by Erica Naone, have been making the rounds out there on Social Web around Enterprise 2.0 and the successful transformation of becoming a social business altogether and I thought I would spend a few minutes talking about … Continue reading Social Business Begins by Unleashing Your Business Talent
Yesterday evening, my time, I attended a rather interesting webcast with Sandy Carter, IBM’s Worldwide Sales Vice President, IBM Social Business, Collaboration, and Lotus Sales and Evangelism, along with Jeremiah Owyang, Industry Analyst at Altimeter Group, on the topic of Why Be Social?. It surely was quite an interesting event and, if you would be … Continue reading Making Business Sense of Social Media and Social Networking – Twitter For Business

Back then I stated how on my way back, after all … Continue reading IBM’s Lotusphere 2011 Highlights – A Proposal for DIA Now Delivered Successfully!

What an exciting 10 days it’s been so far! Absolutely wonderful! Rather difficult to forget and still musing about them, even if that meant that I would not be getting more than an average of 4 to 5 hours of sleep every single day, except for this past weekend that I decided to take it … Continue reading IBM’s Social Business Jam – Are You Jamming Yet?
One more week to go and I am done with another year of living “A World Without Email“; the third one in a row and still going rather strong at it, despite the numerous feedback I have been receiving from people over the last few months on whether I have given up on it altogether, … Continue reading A World Without Email – Year 3, Weeks 29 to 51 (The Email Starvation Continues…)
