Editor's Notes
- Last year, my colleague Philippe Borremans spoke at this conference on the subject of the pros and cons of employee blogging I was asked to provide a follow-up that looks at how the landscape at IBM has changed in the last 12 months. I’d like to talk about my experiences of blogging at IBM, what we’ve been up to particular in the past 12 months… and I’m also keen to look beyond the context of blogging to look at some of the newer things we’ve been using and talking about. That’s why this presentation is about “social media”.
