Yet another article appeared the other day on Management-Issues about the use and value of Web 2.0 communication technologies in the workplace.
A taster...
As latest research suggests managers are increasingly using Web 2.0 technology such as podcasts, Wikis and social networks to communicate internally with their workers, it has to be asked – are these tools, for now considered cutting edge, really going to change the world or will they just end up, much like email, as yet another way of avoiding face-to-face contact?
No definitive answer is given, but the article (based on a research report that doesn't appear to be online) certainly gives the impression that Web 2.0 is set to be a force in workplace, but perhaps far from being used in manner that suits senior managers.
