Collaboration 2.0
JUNE 15, 2011
On the eve of the main Boston Enterprise 2.0 Conference, it’s worth taking a look at the state of the enterprise. Despite being up to my eyeballs in collaboration strategy behind the firewall inside large companies this year I strive to stay objective and to avoid failing to see the wood for the trees. It’s all [.

As I wrote last month , I'm working with a team of folks to redesign the Web 2 Points of Control map along the lines of this year's theme: " The Data Frame." In the past few weeks I've been talking to scores of interesting people, including CEOs of data-driven start ups (TrialPay and Corda, for example), academics in the public dataspace, policy folks, and VCs.

Recently, a DB2 for z/OS professional asked me about something he'd occasionally seen in a DB2 monitor display: a non-zero value for CONDITIONAL GETPAGE FAILURES for a buffer pool. Now, his DB2 subsystem appeared to be running just fine, but we are rather conditioned (so to speak) to associate the word FAILURE with the meaning NOT GOOD, and he wanted to know if these FAILURES indicated something with which he should be concerned.

Back in the 1980s, when DB2 was relatively new, you had, of course, a lot of application developers who were learning how to program using SQL (IBM invented the relational database and Structured Query Language). Though SQL is pretty intuitive, mastery takes time and so it was understandable that some programmers early on did in their code things that would more effectively be done by DB2.

Last month, I traveled to Chicago for Cohasset Associates' 19th Managing Electronic Records conference: MER. It focused on getting rid of "Stuff", especially the legal implications thereof. "Stuff" represented the unneeded, outdated, and useless information that many organizations keep to their detriment. While most people use MER as an acronym, the organizers prefer to regard the letters as initials, spelling it out.

This week, details came out about how identity thieves captured information for around 200,000 Citigroup customers' information. According to the New York Times article and many articles that reference it, "The case illustrates the threat posed by the rising demand for private financial information from the world of foreign hackers.". Wrong. This case illustrates the threat posed by total negligence and/or ignorance of your Web Apps and Security teams and flaws in your internal quality assurance

Several years ago, Google's top executives clearly realized they needed to create growth engines beyond search. As they looked for new opportunities, two stood out: first, the shift from the PC web to mobile, and second, the rise of "intelligent display" - advertising that works at the brand level, and not just lead-generation and demand fulfillment, which is where search has always ruled.

This past week I attended the Cannes Lions , one of the advertising industry's most prestigious and well attended events. The premise of the event is to celebrate excellence in advertising, marketing and communications, but given it attracts more than 10,000 folks in a business which celebrates Don Draper as an icon, I think it's fair to say that the Lions are as much about drinking and networking as they are about awards.

Yahoo! It's our industry's favorite puzzle. On the one hand, it's one of the largest sites on the web, on the same size and scale as Google, Facebook, and Microsoft. On the other hand, it's not growing very quickly, revenues are flat, and investors have been calling for CEO Carol Bartz's head with increasing regularity. The company has failed to find a "hit" that redefines its value proposition in a world driven by hits like Twitter, Foursquare, and Flipboard.

When Facebook announced it had convinced Carolyn Everson to leave Microsoft to head sales at the pre-IPO social networking giant, a few eyebrows lifted: Everson had only been at Microsoft for nine months, and was recruited there by CEO Steve Ballmer after he watched her work to integrate an important deal between Microsoft and MTV, where she previously worked.

If you Google "Antonio Lucio CMO Visa", as I did in preparation for my conversation with him next week at CM Summit, the first several links which show up are headlined : " Google Hater - Visa CMO Antonio Lucio Slams Giant.".

If you're coming to CM Summit , you're in for a treat. Will is in New York for a benefit concert in Central Park , and he's stopping by to chat with us along the way. I've found will.i.am to be a rare bird - a massively successful commercial artist who embraces brands and marketing as part of his work, instead of a distraction from his work.
