How We Gave Up Control Over The Social Web

How We Gave Up Control Over The Social Web

By Dion Hinchcliffe on November 12, 2013

A short but pithy piece over the weekend by Dave Winer titled “Why the Web 2.0 model is obsolete” got me thinking about where we’ve ended up with social media after nearly ten years. Blogs, wikis, and other tools of easily shared self-expression from the early days have given away in recent years to a […]

Imagining the Future of the Enterprise

Imagining the Future of the Enterprise

By Dion Hinchcliffe on October 23, 2012

This afternoon at a workshop in Stuttgart, Germany at the KnowTech conference I explored our latest conception of the many transformative technology changes happening within our organizations today. The majority, if not most of these trends, are now being driven by the so-called “big shifts” — and our response to them as people, organizations, and […]

What’s Coming Up in Social Business, CoIT, Open APIs, and More

By Dion Hinchcliffe on January 11, 2012

While 2011 was a busy year, I’m expecting 2012 to be a breakout year for a number of key subject areas that I work with closely. The run up of social business over the last five years has been phenomenal but there’s a general sense now that it’s about to go truly mainstream. That’s not […]

The Web vs. Mobile Apps: How iOS and Android Are Disrupting The Open Internet

The Web vs. Mobile Apps: How iOS and Android Are Disrupting The Open Internet

By Dion Hinchcliffe on December 17, 2011

The battle is well under way but I find that most people barely notice it. As Shelly Freierman of the New York Times noted earlier this week, as developers put the finishing touches on the millionth mobile app (yes, millionth, as with an ‘M’), other channels are now outmatched: The pace of new app development […]

Consumerization: Why the Workplace of Tomorrow Looks Like The Internet

Consumerization: Why the Workplace of Tomorrow Looks Like The Internet

By Dion Hinchcliffe on November 18, 2011

The title of this post is almost right. The workplace of tomorrow will look like a lot of things actually, including the Internet; just not a whole lot like the way our organizations look today. For one, the workplace itself has steadily begun to disappear as teleworking becomes more and more prevalent, though the latest […]

Transforming the Enterprise As We Know It

Transforming the Enterprise As We Know It

By Dion Hinchcliffe on October 31, 2011

As I was reading David F. Carr’s latest piece on The Brainyard today, it drove home again for me some of the practically insurmountable challenges that many organizations have in avoiding the growing forces of digital disruption. David’s piece talked about Don Tapscott‘s proposition that we have to fundamentally remake the way our organizations engage […]

Are We Building Businesses? Or Are We Building Platforms? Yes.

Are We Building Businesses? Or Are We Building Platforms? Yes.

By Dion Hinchcliffe on October 18, 2011

A couple of days ago I saw a tweet go by from Michael Cote, referencing some work I did a few years back that tried to articulate the full notion of where Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) was going. I had been exploring the subject as Google and Amazon had recently been busy expanding their offerings in the […]
