Kiwi Intranet shin dig

It's that time of year again and together with BrightStar we've got a great Intranet conference for all those New Zealand Intranet folks, starting next week.

For those of you who may be following the action in the alternate channels I thought I'd post the Agenda and the hash tag for everyone to use Monday and Tuesday next week.

I've had a hell of a couple of weeks so I'm really looking forward to seeing some great presentations, hearing some super questions and learning a lot.

James Robertson of StepTwo designs is giving the key note, so expect to be challenged.


Hash tag for the event #nzIntSum09 - looking forward to your blog and twitter posts

Yammer and puddles

Recently I was asked " What are the top 10 points you think are important to get across to staff at all levels in an organisation about Yammer? " My initial reaction was "Tough ask", mainly because I've seen great write ups on what organisations get out of Yammer but very few that talk directly to the user benefits. Many articles give the usual cop out "users can't see the point, until they get it" I admit I was in that boat when I started using Twitter, a public micro blogging platform. But just like they said "once I used it I got it". What they didn't say was that it took a while and it suits certain people better than others. So as with all things in the social media space, be aware that culture change not the technology may be your biggest challenge.

In following Intranets Live I've been lucky enough to see some great intranets. As such I was able to reply to Christy with the following Nokia do Deloitte do (see the end of the post) Christy's question also prompted me to document my own intranet's profile page. The following image is from the view other's get of my profile. When I look at my profile I see every item that is recorded. I'll save you from that, another post perhaps, if you're interested. DorjeM PS a couple of Vendors I've been reminded of, thanks Crhis and Carolyn, also have screen shots of their profile pages on the web: ThoughtFarmer - intranet software - slideshow of screen shots and Intranet connections - software solution
