Enterprise 2.0 is a label, not a revolution
chris.yeh@... 26th Aug 2009
The key is one's definition of Enterprise 2.0.

If one defines E2.0 as a revolution in the way people do business, of course it's a crock. There is rarely anything new under the sun in the world of management, and technology certainly isn't going to change that.

But if you think of E2.0 as a shorthand for a specific set of technologies (e.g. wikis, microblogging, employee connections), one can certainly argue for the business value of each of the components.

It may very well be that E2.0 evangelists are doing their cause a disfavor by treating it as, well, a cause.

Far better to simply identify and solve business problems, regardless of the label on your technology.
