Pistachio Consulting has released a new report comparing enterprise microsharing tools. One of the key findings in the report was “Your employees are likely already microsharing.”
Why microshare? Another key quote from this report is “Twitter supports a worldwide user base and represents staggering potential value from relationships, interactions, data flow and more.” Watercooler conversations now being held worldwide, at any time and any location.
As this technology rolls out into the enterprise, case studies will begin to be released which I believe will show the value in remote collaboration and improved work.

Glad to see that you found Laura’s report.
Last week at the conference in SF there were so few attendees that were aware of Twitter. So I offered to a quick 10 min preso on it. I created a post to reference http://tinyurl.com/623azm
It was great to meet you, too!

Twitter is really interesting, in that I tend to either talk with people who take it for granted as part of their daily lives, or with people who have heard of it but never use it. I suppose that’s typical for a technology that is still in an early adopter phase. Though 3M+ users is pretty substantial for early adoption.

Daniel,
Connie has a great post on making the business case for Twitter. Even though it is in its infancy, some people are using it to replace email as a means of communication as talked about here.
