In a story he headlined Web 2.0 sews grassroots collaboration, CNET News.com’s Martin LaMonica wrote:
Like others, Seely Brown expects to see a wide range of techniques common on consumer Web applications–including blogs, collaborative Web page editing through wikis, tagging and RSS (Really Simple Syndication)-based subscriptions–to bleed into mainstream business applications….new Web standard products could push people to stop using e-mail to share documents and instead collaborate through shared workspaces like wikis….The onus is back on the incumbent providers, especially IBM and Microsoft, to (react). This stuff is beyond good enough, and it’s easy to work with," [said Burton Group analyst Peter O'Kelly].
