How is Web 2.0 changing business
"The average knowledge worker spends 2.3 hours per day -- or about 25 percent of work time -- searching for critical information, with 60% saying search is a difficult process."
Strategies for the Knowledge Economy: From Rhetoric to Reality, 2000.

Are you suffering from the 4 Most Common Headaches caused by outdated technology.
|
Headache #1 |
Our Remedy |
|
You have legacy systems that:
At best, your IT department spends hours, weeks and even months developing stop-gap solutions before your employees can use the latest tools they need to get the job done. At worst, you are forced to wait until one of the big platform providers develops the solution you so desperately need. |
A Web Operating System on which Internet based applications sit. These individual applications operate together and enable everyone in your company to access the latest software and tools they need – when they need them.
|
|
Headache #2 |
Our Remedy |
|
You have individual computer operating systems that restrict access to information simply because they are not capable of retrieving content that is “unstructured”, “undefined” – the kind of information and knowledge that employees share in an informal chat or e-mail discussion. |
The equivalent of intranet Blogs, Wikis and TWiki's to release the potentially enormous value of the unstructured, ad hoc knowledgebase and experience within your company and your employees. |
|
Headache #3 |
Our Remedy |
|
You have data scattered across dozens (if not hundreds) of directories and databases, output by various applications, making it difficult to find -- and even harder to see in a format you understand. |
Enterprise 2.0 solutions revolutionise how your information is located and absorbed. This solution enables each employee to define the information needed to help them do their work. This is then delivered via RSS feed to the employee’s desktop. |
|
Headache #4 |
Our Remedy |
|
You have duplicated work and inconsistent output. Your company is losing money because your employees are not aware of the innovations, content, process improvements, etc. that are going on elsewhere in your company. Your bottom line is being hit because of the time and money wasted on recreating the same solutions over and over again. Your employees are frustrated because they can’t make sense of the data provided by your current search and retrieval systems. Morale is low because too often employees are forced to reinvent the wheel with each new project – only to find out later that someone else in your organisation already solved that problem ages ago. |
We will enable you to exploit networking, metatag, and keyword search capabilities to improve creation, modification and reuse of the vital information spread across your company in informal forums -- from chats around the water cooler to memos on employee hard drives, and more. We’ll provide the mediums for your employees to share their experiences, problems and solutions in an informal, but easily accessible, form. Before you know it, they will be running back from the water cooler to pass on their latest ideas and solutions via your Intranet. |
