At IBM, innovation is going social
IBM’s innovation program is driven by an internal social-media network underpinned by in-house Facebook, Twitter and Delicious clones and more than 17,000 employee-run blogs. That social infrastructure enables the company to throw online „innovation jams,“ in which employees, clients and friends log on to discuss promising research projects and vote on which ones to develop as incubator businesses. SocialMediaExaminer.com
