Collaborage? What does that mean?

Let’s start with a bit of a background and mission of this blog. Our organization has deployed collaborative and social software (Web 2.0 Technologies) over the past 4 years. We have seen a fair amount of success by applying our traditional frameworks to these new area which include corporate versions of Weblogs, Wiki, Social Tagging, Collaborative Spaces, Intranet, etc. Our growth rates exceed triple digits and now, we are moving from a 60,000 person firm to a 300,000 one. This blog is a journal of our journey, lessons learned, and best practices. Most of the information will be supported with validated case study metrics and real world observations. Ok, I may toss in some editorial comments but hopefully, stay on task of expanding the body of knowledge in the Enterprise 2.0 space.
Collaborage is the railing against the forces that stand in the way from complete re-invention of how business gets done in the large organization. The re-invention will be defined by the new collaborative and social software; it is not a question of if but rather one of when. Hopefully, you will find these observation of value in your implementation of Web 2.0 technology.
