Web 2.0: Practical Applications for Business Benefit

by Suw on October 2, 2008

I have spent the last couple of days at the Unicom seminar, Web 2.0: Practical Applications for Business Benefit, hosted by Dave Gurteen. As usual, I have notes from the sessions up on Strange Attractor:

  • Euan Semple - Opening Keynote: What’s Social Got To Do With Work Anyway?
  • Ron Donaldson - The Ecology of Web 2.0
  • Luis Suarez - Thinking Out of the Inbox – The changing nature of collaboration
  • Penny Edwards - Social Software Applied: in legal and professional services organizations
  • Judith Lewis - Online Brand Reputation Management
  • Leisa Reichelt - Twitter’s Not A Waste Of Time (in defence of status updates)
  • John Meakin - Secure Web 2.0, an opportunity not an oxymoron
  • Cathy Ma - Key learning from Wikipedia for business
  • Suw Charman-Anderson - The Email Problem and How To Solve it
  • Dominic Campbell - Rewiring Relationships: Cyber Citizens and Collaborative Councils
  • Marshall Manson - Engaging Social Networks
  • Chris Vallance - Radio Beyond the Phone-in: Social media and broadcasting
  • Andrew Woolfson - Social Media and its Use: The challenge

Had a great couple of days and met some really lovely people. David’s conferences are always interesting, and I particularly enjoyed the talks by Ron Donaldson, Luis Suarez and Dominic Campbell. Would recommend those ones if you’ve limited time to read through talk notes!

    • A new web discipline: Social Functionality Design
      I’ve been thinking a lot recently about what makes a website social, and how different types of social functionality could fit together to create a satisfying experience for the people who use the website. Partly this is because I’m working closely with a Canadian publishing start-up called Book Oven to do just that - design [...]
    • 20 signs you don’t want that internal social media project
      I just nearly burst my appendix laughing at Chris Applegate’s 20 signs you don’t want that social media project. I am thus inspired to write my own list of tips that, perhaps, one doesn’t really want that internal social media project after all. Client wants to code their own blog/wiki software because “we want total control”. Client [...]

      It’s coming up to Thanksgiving here in the US, and a thin layer of snow still sparkles on the ground in the winter sun. On Friday, (that’s the day after Thanksgiving for any of you not steeped in American tradition) we shall drive to Milwaukee for a spot of Christmas shopping and, in the case [...]
    • New RSS feeds
      I’m not sure how long they’ve been there (Kev and I rely on the Corante team for blog tech development), but I’ve just noticed that Kev and I now have our own RSS feeds! So if you want to follow just one of us, or to have our feeds separate in your RSS reader, you [...]
