E20portal.com – Enterprise 2.0 Resource

by Bill Ives

This is a review of an enterprise 2.0 aggregation site rather than a software product but I think it provides a useful resource so I wanted to mention it here. I met Nick Barker at the recent Enterprise 2.0 conference in Boston. He said he is starting the E20portal.com as a resource for enterprise 2.0. It features, events, resources, a directory, feedback, and their own blog. The about section says, “At E20portal.com we have brought together Enterprise 2.0 news, articles, case studies, events and other useful resources into a single, easily accessible place. Our goal is to provide business decision makers and strategists with the information they need to understand this emergent approach, and how you can use Enterprise 2.0 to bring real value to your organisation.” They invite contributions.

Under resources, they have started a series on featured blogs by writers in this space and they asked me to serve as one of these bloggers. I picked my five favorite blog posts on the topic. The next featured blogger is Andrew McAfee. The resources section also includes case studies and industry reports. The directory section includes software resources and consultants. They have made a good start in each of these sections. But there are lots more to add. Kudos to Nick and his partners for starting this resource. We should support these efforts.

Interesting source of information. What will be the next phase? Do you have any ideas on the next version / generation?

Martin - Thanks for your comment. Do you mean the next phase beyond the current iteration of enterprise 2.0? I think we will be increasing integration of applications and data aligned with work flows, along with transparency.
