Executive Summary

Social Computing — a set of fast-growing peer-to-peer technologies like blogs, wikis, social networking, communities of practice, and podcasting — is beginning to have a powerful effect on corporate learning. Universities lead the way in incorporating Social Computing tools to enhance higher education instruction. But forward-looking businesses with wired employees — like IBM and Cisco Systems — are also piloting and implementing learning programs. While many point products exist today, look for Social Computing technology to become part of collaboration tools.
