Collaboration at work: IT resistance is futile
April 7, 2008 Communications News (Linux Insider)
IT departments' dabbling into collaborative technologies will grow from experimentation to deployment in the coming year, Forrester Research predicts. Employees are finding new ways to connect with each other, and now IT shops are catching up.
The enterprise Web 2.0 market will continue to gain importance in 2008 as an increasing number of firms look to Web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis and social networking to solve long-standing information worker problems, according to a recent report from Forrester Research. As a result, Forrester expects to see strong demand for tools like enterprise RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and social networking, along with an increased role for IT departments in technology acquisition.
"Web 2.0 stepped into the collaboration and productivity market with a bang in 2007," says Forrester researcher G. Oliver Young. "Enterprise Web 2.0 is now delivering substantial business value around collaboration and productivity and has reached the 2008 priority list for many enterprises."

Alternatives in the cloud
February 4, 2008 By Barbara Darrow (Redmond Developer)
When Microsoft launched .NET back in 2001, the effort focused initially on winning back ground lost to Sun Microsystems Inc.'s innovative Java programming language and environment. Now a new competitive threat is emerging in the form of cloud-based computing initiatives. And, once again, Microsoft faces a competitive threat that's changing the way developers work.
