Business Two Zero

There has been too long a hiatus since the last London Wiki Wednesday (which happened to be a very “Wikipedia” oriented affair). The big gap was caused partly by me getting very distracted with a very busy few months with WordFrame and the day job, and some family stuff. However, the biggest factor was the […]

One of the key reasons I got involved with ITBrix and WordFrame, first as a partner, and then joining the company with a stake in the business, was the quality of the development and support team that George has put together over in Plovdiv. I did a trip report on the WordFrame blog for last […]

I’m just finishing off a few very productive days in Plovdiv, at the WordFrame development centre, where we’ve been negotiating and planning with two new prospective partners. Later today I’ll be heading to Milan, and driving to Varese to speak at the International Forum on Enterprise 2.0. The conference is being organized by my friend […]

Yesterday, at Web 2.0 Strategies 2008 in London, the ICAEW’s IT Counts community won the award for “The Best New Web 2.0 Initiative”. IT Counts, which is sponsored by Microsoft, provides practical IT advice for accountants in business and in practice. It is part of the ICAEW online network (ion), a new collection of web […]

I had a great session yesterday with Sigurd Rinde on the latest version of Thingamy. We’ve been part of Sig’s ecosystem of consultants and partners working with his innovative business modelling solution for some time. Sig was showing off the product’s new interface and talking through the latest prototype he had been demoing at a […]

Probably the main reason I’ve been inactive on this blog for a while has been because of my involvement in ITBRix, the launch of WordFrame, as well as a major WordFrame project. Let me explain a little. First, WordFrame is an enterprise 2.0 platform that helps you build web communities and manage content, that has […]

One of my fellow Enterprise Irregulars, Michael Krigsman who writes the IT Project Failures blog for ZDNet, was in London for a few days last week. The EI group talks every day online, but we aren’t often in the same city, so it’s always good to make time to meet up physically to say hi […]

Way back in October, that month’s London Wiki Wednesday on 3rd October  was hosted by the innovation consultancy ?What If!, in their rather funky, stylish meeting space called the Old Laundry.  This has a great atmosphere, rather like Skype’s Chill Out Lounge at their London HQ, with comfortable sofas and bookshelves full of books and […]

Every 6 months or a year I like to freshen things up and change around some of my productivity tools and the system I use for getting things done. Coming in to the new year I’m using two rather excellent new tools.
I’d been searching round for a decent Twitter client, tried a few but not been happy, until […]

Microsoft SharePoint Server 2007 is a popular collaboration toolkit and environment, regularly deployed by medium and large enterprises, partly because of the way it is bundled with their Microsoft server licences.  It has wiki capability, but from what I’ve seen, it looks pretty limited.  The SharePoint wiki situation just got a whole lot better with […]
