I have been asked by several people recently “What is a Wiki?”. While there are some great examples and references out there, a recent article from Forbes provides a good background and good support for the use of Wiki’s. If you want to find a Wiki, check out Wiki Engines where there is a wikiContinue reading “What is a Wiki?”

Weird blogger posts
Over the last few days blogger has been playing up. Not sure if you are all seeing the impact, it seems this morning things have got back to normal.
iPods for all!
It is strange how things turn out. Over the last 6-12 months I have wanted an iPod but just could not justify the expense and I was concerned about “the next big thing from Apple”, so far I have watch the 4G, 40GB iPod, and Photo iPod all being introduced. I listen to all myContinue reading “iPods for all!”
SAP Tech Ed online
For all you SAP heads out there if you did not get to TechEd this year, or even if you did go, you can now purchase DVD’s of the events via the SAP Developer Network. On other SAP related items each time I visit SDN I find all sorts of interesting pieces of information. SuchContinue reading “SAP Tech Ed online”
Benefits of internal blogs
Adrian O’Leary pointed to me to an interesting article from Fast Company in April. Where there is a poll on the potential for businesses for blogs, results are interesting showing a fairly even split over knowledge management, project management, sales & marketing, and competitive intelligence. Ok, maybe only 1000 votes but still an interesting breakdown.Continue reading “Benefits of internal blogs”
Blogs & Social networks for internal communications
Via Enterprise RSS. Charlene Li talks about Razorfish using blogs and other social tools for internal collaboration and knowledge management. Interesting post. Charlene wonders if such an arrangement displaces traditional KM systems? I would say yes it will! Blogs are about opening up conversations with people, as we have seen recently with Scoble. By openingContinue reading “Blogs & Social networks for internal communications”
Manageing digital identity & trust
Just listened to Phil Becker being interviews by Doug Kaye over at IT Conversation. Phil is one of (maybe the) organisers of the Digital ID World conference that was recently held in Denver this year. I am finding myself more and more interested in the whole area of digital identity, I have mentioned single signContinue reading “Manageing digital identity & trust”
Donkey’s Doodle
Just been listening to G’Day World and found the Aussie Slang section one of the best things I have heard in a while. Being an aussie who has worked in Canada & the USA trying to explain some of our slang and terminology, eg bugger, bastard, cobber etc, it is great to hear Cameron andContinue reading “Donkey’s Doodle”
Humbled
I have been following the links reading the posts and feel very humbled and kind of like “a fish out of water” being involved in the BlogosphereRadio special report. To have been involved in something with so many important people within blogosphere is just amazing.
Internal blogs
With all of the talk about what seems external corporate blogging I thought I might reflect on internal corporate blogging. I guess kind of like Jeremy Wright did a couple of days ago of business blogging overall. It seems that most of the commentary to date (that I have seen at least) seems to haveContinue reading “Internal blogs”
