Yammer is TC50 Winner - This is a Joke? Right? - ReadWriteWeb

mohit — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 22:17:00 GMT

My thoughts exactly. Watch them prove me wrong;)

Quoted: Here is why I would not consider Yammer a serious start-up:
...
1. No barriers.
2. The incumbent can replace their advantage way too easily.
3. No natural early adopter. The normal early adopter is on Twitter.
...
You use Yammer rather than Twitter to restrict the Followers to your colleagues. So you can discuss company secrets really securely. (That, by the way, was a joke)

Can You Build An Enterprise Only Web App?

mohit — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 14:19:05 GMT

Quoted: This is one of the reasons we've struggled so hard to invest in "enterprise 2.0" at Union Square Ventures. We have tried pretty hard to find companies that we can invest in that bring the new web technologies to the enterprise, but often we've found what happens is that consumers (ie employees) bring the web technologies they use every day to work and they prefer that.

IBM Research | Watson | Cambridge | Dogear

mohit — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 07:42:00 GMT

IBM's enterprise social bookmarking...

Quoted: Dogear exploits the enterprise by allowing people to bookmark pages within their Intranet. In addition it uses enterprise directories to authenticate the user's identity. This allows people to find experts on specific topics within the company. For example, a employee looking for someone knowledgeable in Java can look at the dogear "java" tag to see who has been bookmarking pages around that topic. Dogear will also show tags associated with "java," which may help to refine the search. Once users have found a potential expert, they can see that person's bookmarks, internal blog, and contact information. This form of expertise location helps spur collaboration and sharing of resources within the company.
