I commented on Mike's post, but the comment turned out to be so long that I thought I'd better cross-post it here:
"Mike, thanks for the mention of www.connectbeam.com -- you are right that we provide social bookmarking and tagging for the enterprise. But, we do more as well.
"Many of the 'social workflows' (just made up that term) of the enterprise differ from those on the public Web. Socializing enterprise search, creating social presence via live profiles, enabling expertise location, and supporting persistent groupings of interest in emergent fashion -- those are just a few of the benefits we provide that are specially aimed at life and work in the enterprise.
"For some - maybe all - of them, there is a del.icio.us equivalent. I.e. functionality in del.icio.us that could be seen as analogous. But, the benefit to the user of that functionality is different. And that "difference" comes from the enterprise context, which asks that "emergence" include more "convergence", if you will, in - as I just called them - "social workflows."
"Thinking while typing here, so if any (most?) of the above is unclear, it's no surprise. I'd better cross-post this on my blog in case it leads to queries."
As I say, if this doesn't make sense --- better tell me why, cuz I need to know.
