This blog talks how social software is moving from an individual technology like a wiki to a more integrated technology platform that supports enterprise solutions. The core of this blog shows us how we can integrate social software in our company by...
• Encourage a broad range of use - Encourage the use of different technology solution and get feedback.
• Recruit energetic individuals to adopt, use, and promote technology.
