IBM has made a big push into the Web 2.0 world by unveiling a team collaboration product, social computing software and a suite of tools for building web mashups.
As part of a new “Web 2.0 Goes to Work” initiative, the IBM tools will bring popular consumer Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis and social networks to the enterprise, says Rod Smith, IBM’s vice president of emerging technologies. The new software should help companies more easily brainstorm and collaborate with partners and customers about business content, he says.
