Click below for a great post and VIDEO from CNET demonstrating Oracle's use of Web 2.0 with business applications. I have to give Oracle a ton of credit for continuing to push the envelope and developing integrated uses of Web 2.0 with functions that businesses perform daily. This is also being done by SAP, Lawson and many others in the space; but Oracle seems to really get it and this demonstration continues to prove that. While not a HR example, fun to think about the possibilities.
From a Knowldege Infusion standpoint, the response to our Digital HR launch and services has been tremendous. It is more clear to me than ever that Digital HR will change HR and talent management technology forever and organizations will need a clear strategy around the future of online interactions with the entire workforce.
What do you think the possibilities are? If you had to develop a Web 2.0 application for HR, what would it do?
Another infusion of knowledge...
Indeed the opportunity for web 2.0 in the HR suite is huge. The obvious connection for Recruiting and knowledge sharing are not hard to consider. At ORCL our view is certainly a bit more holistic then might exist at some of the other companies. Our distinct advantage of having a large range of technology components, in addition to a large applications footprint gives us a lot of strength (anywhere that there is an intersection of technology innovation and business innovation I would call our sweet spot).
We are very interested for people to connect with us on these ideas at http://talentedapps.wordpress.com/ where we talk about the Talent Management space or http://oracleappslab.com/ where we talk a lot about the new web.
