While the revolution of Web 2.0 adoption entered enterprises few years ago, the utilization of Web 2.0 technologies for business (otherwise called Enterprise 2.0) still remains unclear in many organizations. Certain companies refrain from embracing Web 2.0 due to ambiguities in areas like ROI justifications, security related issues, etc.

Some of the key topics discussed during this 1 hour session include:

- Challenges and essential baby steps in Enterprise 2.0 adoption
- Social Media Marketing

61. The organisation as a village http://www.flickr.com/photos/krustysplodge/898377791/ People have lived and worked in villages since the dawn of civilization. The corporation, argues Charles Handy, is a youthful concept, little more than a century old. One could argue, too, that the notion of a lively village — with its unabashed humanity — is a more appropriate way to look at what the corporation should be in the 21st century than the constrained and impersonal entity it has been. Villages are small and personal, and their inhabitants have names, characters, and personalities. What more appropriate concept on which to base our institutions of the future than the ancient organic social unit whose flexibility and strength sustained human society through millennia?

67. Context and meaning David Cameron, the leader of the Conservative party in Britain, famously said we should all, “all hug a hoodie”, what he was pointing to was the fierce debate about young people, and how we deal with their seemingly increasing anti-social behaviour. The irony of that statement was captured in this picture. The “hoodie” makes a gun with his hand in a gangsta stylee, whilst his other hand is stuck down his pants. For this young man there is no context and therefore no meaning to David Cameron,to politics or indeed society. As businesses, if you have no context, you also have no meaning for your customers, then you become irrelevant and finally you become obsolescent.

To brands that can play a more meaningful role in our lives The service is called Otetsudai Networks, which literally means "help networks". It is a mobile phone service in Japan where anyone can register and fill in the kinds of skills they have available, say window-cleaning or washing dishes or loading boxes at a warehouse, etc. Then there are temporary employers who have short-term needs. Say a shopkeeper has a sudden illness and the one assistant has to leave the shop early. The shopkeeper needs someone who is reasonably qualified temporary help for his store. Just enter the need (4 hours this afternoon selling shoes at the store in this address at this shopping mall, cash register operation skills needed, pays x per hour). Then those who are near that location, who have indicated that their status is available to do temporary work, will get the alert. It allows for negotiating. If you don't like the hourly rate that is offered, you make a counter offer of what you'd be willing to do the job for. The shopkeeper may get a couple of responses, someone who agrees to the amount but can only do 2 hours, another one who is willing to do four hours but wants a higher pay, etc.
Lauren Luke, who lives in Tynesdie, UK, has found her niche in the cloud. Her business model? She applies makeup, videotapes the process, uploads the tutorial to YouTube and gets an ad split from Google. Thousands of other global entrepreneurs are running similar microbusinesses. T hat number will grow to hundreds of millions in the decades ahead as the cloud becomes ubiquitous.“The cloud represents the reinvention of commerce…the control point has shifted so that suddenly commerce and communication are end to end, with no regard to borders.” http://smlxtralarge.com/?s=lauren+luke

You could say that technologies of co-operation invert the hierarchical process Technologies of cooperation are tools that inspire and enable our innate need and talents to connect and communicate. This is the promise of the mobile society

Every single case history and proposition at Reboot actually has sociability implicitly embedded. Reboot recognises embedded sociability as part of the DNA 0f the networked society – it is a fundamental requirement.
Permeability of organisations This implies that organisations need to be permeable, with the ability to absorb flows of information, and people. This means using more transparent methods of communication from inside out and outside in. This allows flows of networked and connected flows of learning and information do not get trapped in siloed data bases, peoples hard drives or the corner office. It also means being flexible and adaptive, more organic in thought and deed.

Richard Sennett in the Fall of Public Man examines the decline of involvement in political life in recent decades. In fact the decline has been so significant that more people are voting in TV reality shows than they were in political elections. David Cameron, the leader of the Conservative party in Britain, famously said we should all, “all hug a hoodie”, what he was pointing to was the fierce debate about young people, and how we deal with their seemingly increasing anti-social behaviour. The irony of that statement was captured in this picture. The “hoodie” makes a gun with his hand in a gangsta stylee, whilst his other hand is stuck down his pants. There is so much bathos in this image, as it represents Sennett’s fall of public man so completely. If a picture is worth more than a thousand words, this to me is one of them
