Welcom to the Netsintra blog for sharing ideas

Nets has more than 2000 knowledge workers, and united we have an incredible amount of knowledge within our heads and through our professional social networks. Imagine what this task force can achieve if we could master the enterprise cultural change to Knowledge Sharing and Team Collaboration using a Web based Platform where you can...
Search and Follow People, Groups, Forums, Projects, Processes, Blogs, Wikis and Discussions - to get information and knowledge that matches your job function, responsibilities, roles and interests
Connect to colleagues and teams with similar responsibilities, roles and interests across the whole company
Collaborate with your connections through knowledge sharing, discussions and innovation independent of time and place.
Every employee is given the opportunety to be a responsible - long-time focused - solution oriented - team player!
This Blog is ment to start a discussion about the need for a change towards this Connect > Collaborate > Innovate culture, and share knowledge and ideas about such a Web based Collaboration Platform. (Author: Yngve Nygaard, Nets Norway.)

Yammer

https://www.yammer.com/ is very similar to Facebook and is revolutionizing internal corporate communications by bringing together all of a company’s employees inside a private and secure enterprise social network. Although Yammer is as easy to use as consumer products like Facebook or Twitter, its enterprise-grade software is built from the ground up to drive business objectives.

Yammer enables users to communicate, collaborate, and share more easily and efficiently than ever before. It reduces the need for meetings, increases communication across silos, surfaces pockets of expertise and connects remote workers. There are some special applications avaiable to increase the functionality, but Yammer does not have a lot of other functions like Wiki, Blog or Content / Document Management.

Each employee create a profile and use internal tools for news feeds / microblogging, discussions and Ideas. Messages / feeds can be published on the wall or in private, and you can attach files, links and images to a message. It's possible to create different closed groups (teams) within the corporate network, and create different communities (teams) with people inside and outside the company (customers, vendors and partners).

Yammer’s Integration with Microsoft Sharepoint 2010

With the new SharePoint 2010 Yammer Feed Web Part you can see your Yammer feed directly inside SharePoint, eliminating the need to toggle between SharePoint and Yammer. Read more in this Yammer Blog post http://blog.yammer.com/blog/2010/10/yammers-integration-with-microsoft-sharepoint-2010.html. This can be important to Nets because SharePoint is already defined to be a strategic Nets Collaboration.Tool.
