AIIM’s Market Intelligence Group has launched a survey on Enterprise 2.0 that will provide a baseline for understanding perceptions about what constitutes Enterprise 2.0 (what applications are really E2.0 applications, anyway?) and how companies are introducing them into their environments. I was invited to be on the advisory board for this research project by its lead, Carl Frappalo (who blogs at Taking AIIM), whom I met when he was directing knowledge management research at the Delphi Group.

When a large number of new ideas and technologies are swirling around and being adopted randomly, it’s important to look for patterns and see what emerges from them. Data, such as we expect from this survey, will help to identify some of those patterns.
