Podcasts, Blogging, is IBM actualy more cool that it appears ?
Posted by: andrew in IBMingSo following on from yesterdays posting, I’ve actually discovered IBMers get up to some pretty cool stuff…
IBM has a good number of public blogs running, but it also has over 2,800 internal blogs running.
Philippe Borremans, PR Manager at IBM Belgium & Luxembourg, writing in the IAOC blog says ‘At this moment we have about 2800 internal weblogs (on a total worldwide population of about 330.000 IBM’ers.) with about 12700 entries. About 200 blogs have more than 10 posts on them…
…Editors can come from any part of the company; engineers, communications, research, software… you name it…
..Some of these blogs are “information blogs” linking to interesting articles, URl’s, RSS feeds etc… but some are used for project management…
…But I have also seen that blogging is not for everyone. Some people are so used to the “older” methods of working that they really do not jump on the wagon. Being able to change people and get them to participate from the start is the biggest part of the job.’
In the screenshot of his blog you can see Philippe talking about podcasts amongst other things. This is all very interesting, and seem s to be that IBM and a number of other big coporates really are getting on the ‘cool’ bandwagon…
