The answer is, increasingly, “Yes and no.” I encourage you to consider these tools to supplement your current communications with your network. You will maintain a stronger network if you can communicate specific, relevant information about what you are doing, and these tools can help. Here we will delve into some key Web 2.0 tools’ unique value for enhancing the value of networks by keeping in touch better. […]
We had a lively discussion, which I’ll recap briefly before providing links to additional information pertinent to our discussion. […] How the Social Network Roadmap can increase demand for Web 2.0 and social software and services providers.. brief overview of the Roadmap’s phases and connection points for Web 2.0 vendors […] Strategy and plans behind the Social Network Roadmap’s Facebook Page, which Facebook members should benefit the most from the Roadmap and how it can drive their business […] Demand drivers for enterprise social networks: global enterprises suffer innovation crisis while individuals seek employment security; cross-boundary collaboration is a win-win for enterprise and employee […]
[…] Companies must take an ecosystem-focused approach to website design in the Web 2.0 era; site-centric design is a relic of the past […] Glad to give a plug to the creator of this theme; it’s the most feature-rich and easiest theme I’ve yet encountered. Will be redoing the blogroll tomorrow (er, later today ,^) and adding a post. One of the key ideas behind this site it to give interested parties a real-time thread of the Roadmap’s development. For example, soon (shhhh) we’ll be officially unveiling the Roadmap’s beta program. I’ll be speaking at conferences this year and next. Here is where you can come to learn emerging issues and insights as CSRA and clients use and refine the roadmap to push the envelope while managing some of the possible downsides of aggressively adopting disruptive technology and behaviors. I look forward to the journey! What are your thoughts? What would such a roadmap mean to you? |

Normally summer would have provided ample time to reflect on Q2, but it sizzled with speaking engagements and extensive development here at EGLI and at CSRA. I’m pleased to share the highlights and to look ahead to Q3, which will be very exciting for EGLI. First, however, I’ll recap Q2.
Executives of a certain, er, level of experience face an apparent dilemma when they consider using LinkedIn and other Web 2.0 tools: they already have well-developed networks and non-Web 2.0 processes for managing them. Why should they use LinkedIn or other Web 2.0 tools? Aren’t connections best maintained by high value face-to-face lunches, meetings or phone calls?
Yesterday I presented LinkedIn as an executive job search tool to a packed house at St. Chrysostom’s Employment Council (the the Career Transitions Network). It was interesting to focus LinkedIn on a new area of human endeavor, getting a new job.
The Social Media Club recently asked “social media evangelists” to share their experiences of life in the trenches, helping people to understand the promise and peril of social media, which is highly connected to social networking and Web 2.0. I thought their survey was very well done, so here I am reprinting my answers, and I’m asking you to weigh in with your observations and experiences, too.
