Live Streaming Enterprise 2.0
George Dearing is using Cover It Live to stream the Enterprise 2.0 conference coverage over on the Content Management Connection blog. It’s very cool, updates are posted “live” and look like this:
|
11:18 |
Microsoft’s shifting to its Wiki implementation in Sharepoint..very similar to blog functionality |
|
11:28 |
Lawrence Lui mentioned Sharepoint’s Records Management and Compliance aspect and how it sometimes needs to integrate into more traditional enterprise apps and workflow.. |
|
11:32 |
Microsoft just announced an open source Podcasting application with tagging and rating built in..worked with Accenture on the development..Liu says that goes along with MSFT’s partner model to leverage “its ecosystem” |
|
11:55 |
Microsoft is showing some of the social profiling capabilities in Sharepoint..demoing its “people search” function now..you can input common terms and it scrapes the profiling mechanism..IBM had a better visual display of its people search in earlier session |
|
11:59 |
looking at a nice KM-type app within MSFT’s demo..it’s “expertise search” in their terms..it nicely incorporates documents and other content when you find the right person..you can IM and add them as a colleague to finish ou the use case |
|
12:06 |
Integrating your implicit and explicit networks goes something like this in the Sharepoint implementation we’re looking at:1. looks at Communicator contacts 2. email is mined for context of message and provides ranking — the piece of code remains on the client side 3. looks at groups and communities |
|
12:07 |
QA session has now begun..the room is split so we can’t see the people or panelists on the other side of the room..bad planning for overflow |
|
12:10 |
IBM says less than 10% of its total workforce is involved in social software type stuff..they say it’s best to expose the social data that business users everyday (like search) to get them familiar with the techie social computing stuff |
|
12:13 |
IBM says you can build extensions to other user groups outside of the social computing firewall (use their API) |
|
12:14 |
IBM : One of the things you’ll start to see a sharp increase in is the retail sector..totally agree..social commerce is taking hold |
|
12:15 |
MSFT : Miami Dade Public Schools is doing both internal and extrernal social computing |
|
12:17 |
MSFT - the space is growing..mentioned Awareness as one example of a partner with overlap..if a client needs a broader set of capabilities, there needs to be partners that fill that gap..everything out-of-the-box is not practical - Lawrence Liu |
|
12:20 |
Closing statements: IBM - big thing that hopefully resonated..extensibility and standards are key..people are somewhat new to the space ..u should try to affect the things they use everyday..allows them to get their feet wet..a single system to address savvy and non-savvy users is important |
|
12:23 |
IBM - speaking about IBM’s integration capability..we work with our own apps but we also work in the context of things lke Outlook and Exchange..lot of flexibility built-in via extensive plug-ins..customers can download and use on their terms..RIM solution they showed has a small footprint as it works with Lotus Connections..you can download off the BB site…gives access to profile ans communities |
|
12:26 |
IBM - leverage the way consumers listen to consumers..retail is a good example..Project BlueHouse is IBM’s SaaS offering..taking social software attributes and delivers ondemand…it’s starting to expose other Web 2.o services..example of data portability is OpenID |
|
12:27 |
IBM - talking about BeeHive Project..testing internally at IBM..they’re helping people brand themselves.. |
|
12:30 |
IBM - the things that are unique to IBM 1.rich social software platform ( directory support, support your intranet) 2.web standards ( thru REST API) 3.strong ties into our research organization 4.stretchiung the natural bounds 5.ully deployed real-world implementation ( tested and supported via 400K users) |
|
12:31 |
MSFT - reiterated its Podcasting Kit - mentioned the Partner channel |
|
12:36 |
MSFT - investing heavily in social computing - interoperability (reduce barrier to entry) - Partner ecosystem is a “huge strategic part” of our business - some of our UIs are showing their age.not just IE but across browsers - we have our own set of labs (MSResearch) - Office Labs ansd MySites deployments have terabytes of data and are well tested - TownSquare Project is an enterprise news feed being deployed across the US..helps determine what makes a good feed and bad feed |
|
12:55 |
In the media room..we’ll be on a lunch break soon |
|
4:19 |
Meeting with Acquia in the Westin lobby..Jeff Whatcott and Bryan House.. |
|
4:31 |
Acquia’s bringing a lot of value to Drupal’s soluton providers thu education and methodologies |
|
4:38 |
jeff whatcott - the point of social publishing is not “drive by Web 2.0″ |
|
4:44 |
Acquia says Web 2.0 is mature enough now and companies should be looking at platforms.. |
I would love to see some sort of “capture” mechanism to preserve the content, but in a cursory look, don’t see it. The cut and paste functionality will have to do for now. But very cool nonetheless.
[…] that had to do with the novelty of the service remains to be seen. Janet Lee Johnson thought it was cool enough to blog about it, and I noticed it had enough lift to light up Twitter with a few […]
