IBM whitepaper: Achieving tangible business benefits with social computing
Document Type(s): whitepaper

Updated on: 09/17/2007
Read the entire IBM Whitepaper.
Excerpt:
"In the age of Web 2.0, Internet users are rewriting the rules of social interaction by harnessing a range of new technologies to create and sustain virtual communities forged around common interests. Communications channels such as blogs and online forums, amplified by collaborative technologies like social bookmarking, provide powerful tools for sharing information and sustaining relationships across geographic borders and industry silos. Often referred to as collective intelligence or the wisdom of the crowd, the reservoir of knowledge created by these confederations of self-designated experts and volunteers can often exceed the sum of the parts.
It is the power inherent in this collective intelligence that is causing the corporate world to sit up and take notice. In today’s global market environment, it is increasingly difficult to differentiate products via conventional benchmarks like price or even quality. One key to gaining a competitive advantage is being the first to market. This often requires rethinking the enterprise from the ground up, from technologies to processes to people. As part of this business transformation, business leaders are now focused on the human component in their efforts to foster innovation and growth. To truly stand out from the crowd, they are discovering they must harness the power of corporate knowledge. By collecting, maintaining and sharing the discrete bits of knowledge scattered throughout departments and organizational niches, companies can better leverage this collective intelligence within the enterprise.
Social software can be instrumental in achieving this goal. A recent research paper by Gartner concluded, "Enterprise social software will be the biggest new workplace technology success story of this decade. Thirty percent of enterprises will openly sponsor internal…social sharing spaces to help employees find others with similar interest, skills, backgrounds and experiences."

Research fuels social software innovation at IBM
Document Type(s): pressarticles

Updated on: 09/17/2007
Article/report title: Research fuels social software innovation at IBM
Article/report author: unknown
Publication name: Research fuels social software innovation at IBM
Publication date: 21 November 2006
Page number or link to article: Full text of the article is here.
Main points covered: "Social Networking is a natural extension of our work with collaboration," says Irene Greif, Ph.D., IBM Fellow and thought leader with long-standing influence on the evolution of Lotus software. Greif heads an IBM Lotus research group concerned with the "Collaborative User Experience" and directs the business collaboration research strategy across IBM. We talked to her recently about the continued pioneering role of Lotus software in the advance of collaboration technology, related changes in the ways people work, the emergence of "social networking" for business and how IBM Lotus is again leading in this space.

Introducing innovative and dynamic new Business Partners community based on IBM Lotus Connections
Document Type(s): veragingbusinesspartners

Article/report title: Introducing innovative and dynamic new Business Partners community based on IBM Lotus® Connections
Publication name: Introducing innovative and dynamic new Business Partners community based on IBM Lotus Connections
Publication date: 30 April 2007
Page number or link to article: Full text available here.
Main points covered:
An exciting new online community for IBM Lotus Business Partners called "Lotus Connections for Partners" is here! From an idea that ignited at Lotusphere through more or less spontaneous combustion, Lotus Connections for Partners will give Business Partners a way to continue and extend the energetic networking and ideas exchange that took place at that event. Built on IBM Lotus Connections, it will also let them experience the dynamism of this product in a purposeful business environment prior to the product's commercial release.
The prototype for an online Customer community called "Lotus Greenhouse" was premiered at Lotusphere, with an open invitation for all Lotusphere attendees to use and explore it. In follow-on conversations with Business Partners, many expressed strong interest in having a community like this for Partners ongoing where they could communicate with each other and interact. So the decision was made on the spot to bring the prototype back up to the Lotus lab and repurpose it for Business Partners.

She works with collaboration and portal software, studying emerging technologies and their application to business problems, with current focus on the social aspects of "Web 2.0."

Case studies and references
The Summary presentation is an overview of early Connections customer engagements. The customer stories described in the summary and individual presentations were created to help people understand the many ways that Lotus Connections can deliver business value to many different industries.
Separate presentations describe in detail the solutions for Education, Automotive, Telco, Diversified Technologies, and at IBM. Each one contains speaker notes that describe the customer’s pain points, the solution, and the benefits of the solution. T
These are not customer references at this point so they have been generalized. We expect to obtain customer approval in the future to turn them into named customer reference accounts.
