- SLA's and the Real World
- There's a solid post by Jevon McDonald (who has long questioned whether there is a viable 'Enterprise 2.0' market) this weekend, titled 'Understanding the role of Enterprise 2.0 and moving towards a Social Business' on the 'Fast Forward' blog, which is focused around the FAST search...

- The Paparazzi Social Media Problem
- Jevon McDonald, someone whose opinions I rate highly, has posted a stellar piece on 'The uncertain future of Blogging' today. The idea of user-generated content was once almost exclusively owned by blogging. Blogging was the conversation, blogging was the vehicle, blogging was the...

- Move over Enterprise 2.0, it's now Social Business Design
- Given the relatively friendly pounding I took over my Enterprise 2.0 - what a crock post, it's gratifying to see that it has stirred some interesting interpretations and thoughts on the topic. That's always good and especially pleasing when one considers that most blog posts are the equivalent of digital...

- Jeffrey Walker: an Irregular farewell
- Living on Central European Time means I don't always get news in a timely fashion. Some news I don't want to get. Jeffrey Walker's passing came to me via a Tweet and I am crushed. Jeffrey was one of 'us' Irregulars. A gentle...

- Enterprise 2.0: my $0.02
- Enterprise 2.0 is over for another year and despite a poor start, the event turned out well. I attribute the poor start to the performance of Oracle and Microsoft: two of Jevon MacDonald's 'drag queens.' Both seemed tired, dated and out of touch with the mood of the new generation...

- Will Enterprise 2.0 be a wash?
- Next week sees the start of Enterprise 2.0 in Boston. You'd think that given the line up of rock star speakers that it would be a magnet for eager buyers looking to find out what's likely to be new, fresh and shiny in the wonderful world of all things social....

- Business ByDesign: the Irregular verdict
- I've hung back on posting my thoughts on Business ByDesign for several reasons. When I wrote my pre-Sapphire08 conference story, it was clear this would dominate the Irregulars' questions. I needed to get through meeting with all the key executives and view the latest iteration of the product to gain...

- Why social software won't dethrone the incumbents
- It's not often I find myself fundamentally disagreeing with Sam Lawrence. He's a smart guy with a great marketing head. But on this post he's over-reaching in my opinion. His basic argument says this: The big IT vendors aren’t taking social software seriously. They can’t. Not even if they...

- The end of software...
- ...as you know it. Right now I'm falling over startup vendors vying for attention in the so-called 'social software' space. The fact enterprise people hate the term doesn't seem to bother those who are bypassing IT as they sell into the marketing departments of companies at departmental budget prices. But...

- SAP's alternative Twitter project
- Following on from my last piece about Twitter, I also spoke with Craig Cmehil, another Irregular and SAPper. For some weeks, Craig has been running a side project to develop a Twitteresque alternative for use inside the firewall. Wordpress's Prologue might make a decent alternative but Craig's work started before...

- Forget predictions, get a wishlist
- At this time of the year, pundits of all stripes seek to grab attention by appearing sage and wise by making predictions for the coming year. Heck, I've done it myself - and lived to regret such pretensions. This year I prefer to pen an enterprise wishlist because that's...

- Make enterprise software really sexy -- romance the user!
- Think about it -- what's makes a romantic date really romantic? It's spontaneous, in which one or both parties let their whims take them to some delightful unexpected place. It doesn't have to be an expensive date. And, importantly, it's a two-way conversation, with both individuals sharing their interests, and...

- Nick Carr's enterprise software fantasy land
- In a post titled, Michael Krigsman doesn't understand enterprise software, Nick Carr brings forth a series of nonsense arguments unsupported by the reality of how enterprise software is developed, purchased, used, and maintained. To begin, Nick makes the point: ZDNet blogger Michael Krigsman lays in to...

- When Microsoft announced its planned line-up of Office and Exchange 2007 packages earlier this year, there wasnt a whole lot of outcry about the companys decision to cut Outlook from the Exchange CAL (client-access license). But now the reality is setting in -- and some business customers are none too...
