Very well written article!
Enterprise IT needs to change radically and integrate the social media and related technologies into its roadmap. I think the major gap here is in the mindset. The social engineering and business mindset that is needed to understand the fundamental shift in how social media technology will be used in the future and how to use these technoogies within the enterprise - for business- will be the biggest challenge. I wonder how many CIOs and IT departments are upto this challenge.
More likely, in next 5 years we will see young enterprises and startups grow into large firms with radically different IT footprint and that's when a new generation of IT leaders will emerge who will have grown with the new perspective and can drive the new enterprise IT.
It's a pleasure to read such engaging articles. I had tweeted few days back about this same challenge.
Cheers,
