Web 2.0, Enterprise 2.0 and Enterprise Content Management

Posted by Sean Lew on Friday, 5 December, 2008 under Enterprise 2.0, Web 2.0 |

I have been studying web 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 for over a year now and after looking at social networking, collaboration and the impacts on virtual teams. From many of my previous posts, you would have known that I am quite skewed towards the fact that one of the key outcomes of social networking and collaboration is better knowledge management.

So if web 2.0 and enterprise 2.0 brings about better knowledge management, that would also mean better content within the organisation. If there is better content it would also mean that Enterprise Content Management (ECM) would need to be managed.

I have looked at some of the ECM tools on the Gartner’s magic quadrant for Enterprise Content Management tools and compared it with some of the open source tools like Joomla and Drupal. Even though each tool has pros and cons and for different situation, different tools would fit the bill better. I must say that the open source solutions are actually really good aside of the level of support provided.

I have decided that this is one area I would explore more into and try to integrate the ideas of Web 2.0, Enterprise 2.0, ECM and Knowledge management all into one.
