The traditional portal is on its way out. Employees demand more social tools and dynamic content that brings in content from across the enterprise. Facebook, Twitter, and blogs in the consumer space are changing what we expect in our businesses in the tools at our finger tips. In this session we’ll look at this transformation of information portals to engaging portals. Information is going through a revolution, and people are demanding to be heard. We'll explore building the water cooler for enterprises using real world examples.

Intranet design challenge… never "set and forget”
When employees use the web then intranet, they
shouldn't feel like they've gone from driving a BMW M3
to an old Trabant…

11. Traditional Portals vs. Social Portal
Engage
Inform
“Two thirds of organizations today
have sprinkled some kind of
social media pixie dust on their
intranets
Most businesses today they are
still well behind… what most users
have in their personal lives.

15. Gartner’s Predictions:
“When it comes to collaboration, IT organizations are
accustomed to providing a technology platform rather
than delivering a social solution that targets specific
business value.
This will result in over a 70 percent failure rate in IT-
driven social media initiatives. Fifty percent of
business-led social media initiatives will succeed,
versus 20 percent of IT-driven initiatives.”
