Enterprise 2.0 Success Stories from 2007

by Bill Ives

People are often looking for examples of enterprise 2.0 successes and we continue to document more on this blog. I found a large number of examples in 2007 and posted them on my Portals and KM blog and the Fast Forward blog. I want to share these stories with you and add them to the App Gap archives. Here they are in a somewhat random order.

I think that the biggest adoption challenge for enterprise 2.0 is not technical or even managerial. It is creativity. How are we going to use the new social media tools in ways that are not simply adaptations of how we have always done stuff. How are we going to make full use of the opportunities in the new media? I think these stories add a starting point for thinking about what you might do in your own organization. They also help validate the market. I hope to write about many more on this blog.
