2 Comments| maturity, microsoft, SharePoint
Last week I attended Microsoft’s SharePoint conference in Las Vegas with over 7,000 delegates where they released the first details of SharePoint 2010 (“Twenty-ten”). The amount of changes on the platform is impressive – this release is by far the most ambitious SharePoint release yet and there was a lot of excitement around it from …

No Comments| analytics, jim sterne, maturity
A couple of weeks ago I asked why web analytics is so hard – why we never seem to find enough time for it. In the meantime, I had the chance to discuss things with Jim Sterne, internationally renowned web analytics expert. Jim is the author of the book Web Metrics: Proven Methods for Measuring …

If you are not a vendor, analyst or consultant, you might ask what the actual benefit of maturity models is? If you are among the best in the world, can a maturity model help you get any better?
Most maturity models will attempt to assess and explain your current state. They will also provide some sort …
4 stages of intranet maturity
July 8th, 2009 by Janus Boye
4 Comments| intranet, maturity
European intranet expert Jane McConnell has defined 3 stages of intranet maturity. So what’s next for the organisations that have reached stage 3? Lately, I’ve been discussing this with several of our intranet community of practice members and it seems like even the best intranets still have many areas in which they can improve.

Successful intranets move beyond IT and communications
July 1st, 2009 by Janus Boye
2 Comments| communication, intranet, it, maturity, strategy, success
The discussion about whether IT or communication should own the intranet has been ranging on for as long as anyone can remember. If you want your intranet to be truly successful, you will need to look beyond the two usual departments to increase the value of your intranet.

Against Medical Advice (AMA) is an established medical term, which basically warns the patient (customer) that he or she is acting against professional advice.

This week I’ve talked to several members in our community of practice who were all of the impression that CMS licenses can only be bought from system integrators.

Buyers are normally fairly smart, but tend to forget quite a few things. The web content management industry has now been with us for a bit more than a decade. Today trade press and analyst firms alike like to call the market mature and consolidated. In fact, buyers are still figuring out how to obtain the …
Jyllands-Posten: Blogs are not dead
April 6th, 2009 by Peter Sejersen
1 Comment| blogs, maturity
Jyllands-Posten, Denmark’s largest newspaper and world famous for the infamous Mohammad cartoons, launched a new Danish blog-universe last month. A rather late launch compared to both other Danish and most international newspapers (e.g. New York Times started blogging back in 2004). Another indicator that the timing could have been better here comes from Wired journalist …
