- Enterprise 2.0 - the non-debate
- If I'd paid the full whack $2,495 to attend the Enterprise 2.0 conference I'd be demanding at least a partial refund. It seems the 'Enterprise 2.0 - what a crock' debate was less than a damp squib and more like a feeble whimper. Here's the back story: ...

- Surviving and thriving: or why MISO has it (mostly) wrong
