Wikis Change the Meaning of "Groupthink"

A recent article by Forrester outlines the Trend for Wikis. There are definitely pieces I agree with in this article:

Wikis become mainstream business applications

6/4/2008 10:07:15 AM

From the moment we started working on our next generation business communication technology, CustomerVision BizWiki, almost 4 years ago now, we looked forward to day when this technology could be quickly and easily adopted by any organization, not just early adopters. Now I’m glad to say that I no longer find myself explaining the term "wiki" to most people.

Why Enterprise Wikis Are For You

6/4/2008 10:06:49 AM

Why buy an Enterprise Wiki versus a generic, entry level wiki? Because an Enterprise Wiki includes the features that allow them to adapt to corporate requirements and is delivered as a solution with the training and support that helps ensure the adoption and effectiveness of the system. Implemented correctly an Enterprise Wiki can improve the business performance of an entire company or business unit. And that ultimately is the reason to implement a wiki. You wouldn't you buy a transmission without the car, or go fishing without rod, reel and bait, or what about buying a new suit, is it complete without the right shoes? A generic wiki is not a business solution, it’s still just technology. What businesses need is a solution to helps deliver business value. Something that's easy to use, yet works effectively to help solve your true business needs.

6/4/2008 10:05:51 AM

After returning this past Saturday from the Recent Changes Camp in Portland, Oregon, I found the event uplifting and highly motivational. As I continue to learn more about the wiki landscape I'm pleased with the unique role we have carved out for ourselves. We are excited about the prospects of bridging the gaps between the innovators and thought leaders in the wiki world and the requirements of large highly regulated enterprises. Our approach to provide the ability to be completely open with editing to controlled discussion but to also support a more incremental approach to wiki adoption suitable for to corporate customers.
