I’m a huge fan of lists. If they’re read with some existing context/knowledge, they’re an incredible way to trigger ideas.

So, here’s a list from notes made from a talk by SocialText’s Ross Mayfield (who along with Lee Bryant, lead the thinking in the ‘social enterprise’ area) Enterprise 1.0 to Enterprise 2.0, which I think summarise the ‘social enterprise’ trends I’ve been observing (and trying to influence) in my clients:

• document-centric to people-centric
• structured to freeform
• taxonomy to folksonomy
• folders to tagging
• knowledge management to knowledge sharing
• need-to-know to need-to-share
• one-to-many to many-to-many
• centralized to distributed
• top down to emergent
• rigid to flexible

The rest of the article requires less than a minute to read, but has a tight summary of Mayfield’s views on the roles of intranets, and ‘social messaging’.

Also worth a skim are Mayfield’s slideset on SlideShare.
