Forrester Research - IBM's approach to collaboration is looking pretty visionary

Category
Ted Schadler of Forrester Research lays it out for the who's-in and who's-out, for collaboration. In summarizing Google's "Wave," he looks at what it means for "Information & Knowlege Management Professionals and for the industry."

  • WIM #3: Microsoft will have yet another innovation hill to climb (and it will). Redmond will have to digest this advance, but it will shortly ramp up its own conversation-oriented online engine. It will have to make this kind of conversational advance part of its BPOS strategy at some point.
  • WIM #4: IBM's approach to collaboration is looking pretty visionary. Lotus has been quietly reinventing itself over the past few years, and if you haven't looked at Notes or Sametime lately, you need to. And with lead architect Allistair Rennie now at the vision helm, these products with their REST-ful APIs, redesigned interfaces, and Web-centric design metaphors are looking good.


Spot on.
