A few weeks ago, I joined George Dearing’s social networking group, Content Management Connection. It is an “online community for technology practitioners, software companies, and end users to share thoughts and ideas on the changing landscape of content management and collaboration. This site is produced by The Dearing Group LLC., a marketing and new media communications company.”
There are 46 bloggers the last time I looked. A number of the participating blogs are already on my blog list and others look interesting. You can add your own blog to have it reach a new audience. It also has news, events, and surveys. In addition, there are features like most read posts, ability to comment on posts, quick surveys with instant results, most discussed authors, most active authors, most highly rated posts, etc.
George also writes his own blog on new media, marketing, and technology. I liked his post on 3 mistakes customers make with their content. Essentially, he warns people against buying on price or personal reasons and using last decade’s technology but goes into more detail. I think these are also more likely the last decade's buying practices but agree with George that they are still around. With all the integration possibilities within enterprise 2.0 these tendencies can cause even more problems now for the buyers who uses them. George also regularly publishes links to key content management and enterprise 2.0 reports and blog posts.
