Microsoft gets closer to Enterprise 2.0

Last week Susan Scrupski published some great comments about Microsoft’s efforts to orient MOSS (Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007) towards Enterprise 2.0. She talked about Atlassian and Newsgator and how they integrate more tightly with SharePoint now allowing SharePoint users to find people and content more easily. It is also now easier to bring content into SharePoint and to take it out to other platforms and devices more simply.

And for those among us who are less inclined to go with SharePoint or for that matter any large company’s collaboration software, Susan recommends ThoughtFarmer which started out as a SharePoint project.

I too met Chris McGrath at the Office 2.0 Conference and was very impressed with what his company is doing. Keep an eye on them.
