Mindtouch describes a Collaborative Network

by Gil Yehuda on September 25, 2009

in Enterprise 2.0


I’ll let Aaron Fulkerson, CEO of MindTouch, do the talking here, and share with you his vision and product.  I’ll say this:  Mindtouch is one of the most fascinating of the Enterprise 2.0 platform vendors out there from a technology and engineering perspective.  Moreover, they power some very public platforms – so they are well tested, scale [...]

Astroturfing or Supporting your Company?

by Gil Yehuda on September 25, 2009

in Enterprise 2.0


I ran into an interesting question the other day that I wanted to pose to you.  A client of mine will soon announce a white-label social network site for people to join and share ideas about the industry in which this company sells its services.  Nothing new here, these kind of affiliate communities are sprouting [...]

in Enterprise 2.0


Four years ago I would not have said MediaWiki limits Enterprise 2.0.  I was a big fan of MediaWiki.  I was the WikiMaster of the very visible Enterprise Architecture Wiki at Fidelity Investments — one of 15 wikis in active use at the time.  I had admin privileges on some of the other wikis too [...]

in Enterprise 2.0


I’ve read a lot of research about the hyper-collaborative behaviors of GenY and Millennial employees.  And there is certainly something here to talk about.  Young people are just a bit different than older people.  Surprise!  Check out this photo and count the devices. There are at least 6 visible mobile phones, a couple of laptops, cameras, and [...]

Developing Relevance.

by Gil Yehuda on September 7, 2009

in Personal Branding


I’ve added an additional topic to this blog, Personal Online Branding — it’s a loaded term that has recently attracted some attention, and it’s worth talking about.  At first it appears to have little to with Enterprise 2.0 (the primary topics of this blog).  However there is a subtle connection between the two.  In both [...]
