It seems to me like the Web has quickly morphed into a giant global operating system which allows to remix the Web via mash ups. As a result of a constantly growing acceptance of social applications the global audience has set a new standard for online creative content, online news, audio and video streaming.

In an enterprise employees usually are organized in different roles around issues. Issues are identified during meetings, in conferences and discussions, then resolved between the meetings. Blogs and wikis are inevitable requirements for a modern work group.

The more I got surprised reading 'Executives Remain Wary of Web 2.0' from BusinessWeek that executives put their resources behind 'technologies that enable automation and networking'

1. Web Services
2. Collective Intelligence
3. Peer-to-peer Networking

followed by mainstream Web 2.0 technologies such as

1. Social Networking
2. RSS
3. Wikis
4. Blogs
5. Mash Ups

A major reason was that 'people with heavy knowledge tend to keep that for themselves, because that's the way they define their job'.

Well, knowledge is power and should be honored.
