"Next Steps for Web"
See: http://www.fredonia.edu/pr/web/nextsteps.asp
This page (above) contains videos and articles about "Enterprise 2.0". The articles and videos are intended to generate thinking about possible next steps for campus web use.

The web platform is maturing rapidly with standards for business that are essential for sharing information and providing services for daily campus operations. "Web 2.0" is a general term to describe a wide set of online tools that are used to connect people and information quickly.
Web technologies like Google Docs, Google Wave, WordPress blogs, and wikis are examples of inexpensive, powerful online collaboration tools. The combination of those tools and the business practices to support their use is termed "Enterprise 2.0".
Over the past several years, inexpensive, powerful online
collaboration Enterprise 2.0 tools have been changing dramatically the
business practices of large organizations -- to be easier and faster -- to
effectively reduce the coordination effort of organization-wide projects.
