Fishbowl Solutions

E2.0 For Your Business

June 2009, Issue 2

Greetings!

Greetings and welcome to the second edition of The Aquarium. We at Fishbowl Solutions are dedicated to providing you value around the Oracle UCM market and solutions. In this edition, we have a special focus on the topic of content with context.

Over the years, I have seen users try to put context around content to make it more useful and powerful. Noting just a few examples, I have seen folder structures on network drives, to metadata, to buttons and dropdown navigation on websites, and even wikis and blogs. As the volume of content (knowledge) has grown, making content stand out has become even more critical. Fortunately, I believe Enterprise 2.0 (E2.0) provides the framework for a real solution to this problem.

Building on E2.0 and Oracle UCM, Fishbowl’s new CollabPoint™ solution puts a friendly face on UCM to make all of this possible. I hope you will read my article discussing the evolution of the content with context struggle. 

Thanks for reading on. I hope you will feel free to contact me to talk about this topic.

Sincerely,
Tim Otremba

What is Enterprise 2.0?

AIIM defines Enterprise 2.0 as "a system of web-based technologies that provide rapid and agile collaboration, information sharing, emergence and integration capabilities in the extended enterprise."

But what does this really mean? Users are asking you everyday for new tools to enable them to better do their jobs -- many around social media and Enterprise 2.0 technologies. There is a lot of terminology floating around, so we thought we would provide you with a handy cheat sheet of all E2.0 terms. You can reference it the next time a user asks about creating a wiki, blog, or another E2.0 feature. Don't forget to watch the presentation for even more detail around E2.0.
