Social Business needs a Cnut

Social Business needs a Cnut

By David Terrar on April 25, 2011

Careful with that spelling (for some reason I preferred it to Canute or Kanute).  Here is my premise.  I think, like Clay Shirky, that we are living in a period of transformation rivalling the changes in society triggered by the printing press, the telegraph, the telephone, photography, film, television, or the start of the Internet […]

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

By Dan Morrill on March 20, 2011

Digg has always been problematic for me, and watching it slowly fade away in favor of other systems like Facebook, Twitter, even Reddit has its advantages. While Louis Gray points out that Digg seemed to peak in 2007, about the time the AACS and DMCA takedown happened, Digg really faltered after that event, and never […]

IBM Still Searching for the Flying Car I Grew Up With...

IBM Still Searching for the Flying Car I Grew Up With…

By Zoli Erdos on February 7, 2011

Oliver Marks makes fun of IBM’s rather pointless Flying Car ad: He takes this opportunity to run a quick overview of Web 2.0, Collaboration, Social Business, then finally compares the IBM dud to a SABA video “that at least demonstrates how enterprise business networking and real time collaboration could work, which is far more useful […]

Design for the Novice, Configure for the Pro

Design for the Novice, Configure for the Pro

By Mark Suster on November 22, 2010

I recently wrote about my philosophy of minimalism that “less is more” with the mantra “when in doubt, leave it out.” I’ve had a long-standing rule of thumb in product design, which I call “design for the novice, configure for the pro.”  I started saying this back in 2001/02, long before the era of Web […]

Google Instant makes SEO Irrelevant? Who cares?

By Guest Authors on September 8, 2010

Steve Rubel makes an the argument that Google Instant will kill SEO because: Here’s what this [Google Instant] means: no two people will see the same web. Once a single search would do the trick – and everyone saw the…

Defrag Goals

Defrag Goals

By Guest Authors on August 13, 2010

I have tons of goals for Defrag. Being an OCD sales-freak, I track my revenue on nearly a minute by minute basis (and have corresponding goals). But those “hard numbers” goals aren’t my big, meta-goals for Defrag. My “meta-goals” are actually non-numerical in nature; derived from two conference experiences that set the bar for me […]

Can Your Product Drive Word of Mouth Marketing?

Can Your Product Drive Word of Mouth Marketing?

By Guest Authors on June 16, 2010

In a word, “yes”, but you have to ask yourself “will mine?”  Why do certain products have buzz and why are  some just plain DOA? 1. Products that get used a lot get talked about a lot (OK Steve, brain dead obvious), what’s the interesting part?). The interesting part is that when a product is […]

Cloud Computing, Advertising and TV

By Paul Miller on April 20, 2010

From a trebling of web traffic within sixty seconds of Channel 4 mentioning the Celebrity Big Brother URL on-air, to 59 million hits in a day to a restaurant web site advertised during the US Super Bowl, advertisers, broadcasters and technologists are falling over themselves to exploit a massive — and growing — opportunity. In my latest piece for […]

Introducing SAP StreamWork: New Decision Collaboration

By Guest Authors on March 31, 2010

It’s now official: SAP has released its brand-new Web 2.0 product called StreamWork. The project was initially called “Constellation” within SAP, and was first exposed to beta customers on the web site 12sprints.com, as covered in earlier postings on this site. Why the name? It’s a variant on “workstream”, which according to Wikipedia is: “A […]

Who controls what happens in your browser

By Dan Morrill on March 26, 2010

Interesting tidbit over at Techdirt this morning about a Grease Monkey script called Fluff Busting Purity formerly known as Facebook Purity. While the Techdirt article is good, there are some interesting side issues here that should be noted. Many people run scripts within their browser that kills data coming in from web sites, most popular […]

The Two-Year Lag from Web 2.0 to Enterprise 2.0

The Two-Year Lag from Web 2.0 to Enterprise 2.0

By Hutch Carpenter on March 17, 2010

The Enterprise 2.0 sector draws heavy inspiration from innovations in the Web 2.0 world. Indeed, the name itself, Enterprise “2.0” reflects this influence. From a product management perspective, Web 2.0, and its derivations social networking and social media are great proving grounds for features before coding them into your application. A fruitful area to review […]
