Lots of talks at Open Publish had "2.0" in the title - including mine. Cairo Walker spoke under the banner of "Enterprise 2.0 in practice". In fact, she talked about information management strategy projects at various Step Two clients (including Caltex, CHOICE, Family Law Courts of Australia & Leighton Contractors). It was all good, practical stuff but the links to Enterprise 2.0 were tenuous - except for the use of wikis @ Caltex.
Cairo's best bit of advice: "Trust no one"
Bobby Graham presented on a Confluence wiki implementation at the National Library of Australia. The wiki is used by about a quarter of the 450 NLA staff for information sharing, project plans. It also exists alongside TRIM and an intranet.
Glenda Brown talked about collaborative indexing and esp. the roles of tools like Basedex. First time I'd heard of this tool.
Patrick Kennedy ended the day with a presentation on Information Architecture - specifically on ethnographic research tools and then applying these some Web 2.0 - type stuff - which tied back to Cairo's Caltex example. As you know, we love ethnographic & participative research here at EngineersWithoutFears so it was all good.
So overall, good use of the day and I'm pretty pleased that I didn't have to discuss XML with anyone.
