Eugene Lee

Enterprise 2.0 Boston 2010

Have we been tilting at the wrong windmill?

The real problem

Generic cliché metaphor 2.0

Integrating,

Not ignoring,

From lightweight,

…to substantial business value

Gene splicing gone bad?

Application Genome

Social Software Genome

“Isn’t social just a feature?”

Lather, rinse, repeat

Application Silos -> Social Silos

Connector: connects an application silo to the social layer

Annotator: applies social and business logic to connector data, annotates and promotes messages

AppBots: enable human interaction with enterprise data and processes

Application Streams: enable interaction with applications in the context of an activity stream
