I found this article interesting because I never really got on the "Web 2.0" bandwagon, even though I have been blogging for years and understand the problems of information structuring and taxonomy thanks to many years of working with networks, the interent and SharePoint.
For the record, I think SharePoint is way better than a simple wiki and web 2.0 is a nice idea for the internet, but not process driven enough the way businesses need to be. For that SharePoint is a much better fit.
http://fastforwardblog.com/2007/02/06/why-cant-we-build-this-on-sharepoint/This article is interesting because it points to one possible direction SharePoint could go in. I especially like the focus on the individual rather than the group. SharePoint is seen to be focused on the group ro the organisation. However, My Site is an excellent opportunity to make the focus on the person. By the way, I think the name My Site is annoying, it is like "My Little Pony" or something. What about just calling it "SharePoint"? or Locus, or FocusPoint or something.
