Editor's Notes

  1. First company to bring microblogging into the enterpriseDubbed Enterprise Twitter or Twitter with a business modelNYT names Yammer 1 of 9 websites that IT pros should master in 2009
  2. Tech Crunch 50: it is a conference that aims to find the best Web 2.0 startups and launch them in front of industries most influential venture capitalists, companies and press.Geni. Com is a geneology website
  3. Can easily take and upload a photo with the iphoneAutomatically save messages into drafts
  4. AMD = Advanced Microdevices, computer processors and related technologiesDisney!Scott Kelley the Principal Collaboration Specialist in IT knowledge managementDisney joined right after it wont TechCrunch50Uses it everyday but considers it a 90-9-1 rule of social media 90 are lurkers 9 contribute from time to time 1 participate very oftenUse it for maintaining social connections, keeping mobile employees in touchAunt PatUses it everyday on the iphone applicationCollaboration and research -questions about projects -yammered to ask ppl to send me their thoughts on yammer, two responses in an hour -she finds that people really like to collaborate this way, its very friends and gives you access to people you don’t normally work withPeople have asked questions about computers, software, updates on what is happening in the parksUses it to define ambiguous terms, to collect a consensus. Like what does revenue entail (could screw up the whole calculation)Likes it because everyone can see the message, not just people you add. Or you can create private groupsYou can follow specific people or you can see everyonesIt is a closer knit community unlike all the millions of people on twitterLikes yammer better than googlewave, better iphone app.
