]]> Comment on An interview with Jenny Ambrozek by Jenny Ambrozek http://www.coniecto.org/wordpress/2010/10/jenny-ambrozek-interview/#comment-501 Jenny Ambrozek Wed, 13 Oct 2010 12:08:39 +0000 http://www.coniecto.org/wordpress/?p=272#comment-501 Gabriela, It was a privilege collaborating on this interview. Thanks for your thought provoking questions. Re-reading my comments it occurred to me that colleagues Victoria Axelrod, Bill Anderson and I convened a "Facebook Groups in Business Investigation" (FGIBI) in 2007 that also provided learning that fuels my workshop: http://bit.ly/9U7k6z A remarkable group of leading edge Facebook Group owners across 4 continents trusted us enough to share each of their group's activity data for a quarter: Jenni Beattie, Ray Cha, Dave Duarte, Eric Edelstein, Francois Gossieaux, Adam Kovitz, Niki Lambropoulos, Kimberly Samaha We distributed our findings through presentations including this TheAppGap webinar http://slidesha.re/c3pfwB and in an article, "Placing Faces on Knowledge" published in Inside Knowledge Magazine. http://bit.ly/199i6K The article was informed by additional research, including an interview with Kyle Arteage of Serena Software about his company's pioneering use of a Facebook Group to replace their Intranet. Andrew McAfee covers Serena's initiative in his "Enterprise 2.0" book (pages 84-85 & 182-183.) Not surprizingly our Facebook Groups in Business Investigation found that: "Organisation leaders must acknowledge the explicit social nature of their own work culture. Organisations that can facilitate trusted relationships among employees and their customers will be ahead in a business world where online and offline networks are a key to business success."

I am in Ireland at the moment with my family and we will be going to Limerick for the weekend. Was wondering if you are around then - but from your blog I gather you're off to Germany? If you happen to have time and are still in Limerick mail me and we could go for a walk or whatever Dear Gabriela

About cycling from Siegen to Chemnitz - I escaped a fine back in 2003 when walking on the left side of the Autobahn with my brand-new bike, and I promised the German police I won't be caught doing this again - ever! Unfortunately, I won't get anywhere close to Chemnitz this time! But next time, who knows?!

We have the world's largest Karl Marx Head. What more could one want? ;) Anyway, don't bring too many thick sweaters and leave your rubber boots at home! All indications are that it continues to be a hot summer in Germany for the next weeks. :) I guess with your cheap bike you won’t be able to make it to the “nice place” where I am studying (about 421 km away from Siegen – if you take the right Autobahn ;) ).
