Bank opens social networking flood gates

Wachovia bank is now letting their employees access wikis, blogs and profiles that include photos and information about the roles of employees. Their social network allows users to access a corporate directory for contact information and can note whether an employee is available via instant messaging or phone or is in a meeting.  Now that is cool, I have been needing that for years at most businesses I have worked at.

The employees will also be able to create their own ad hoc wikis and blogs.  Most of the Wikis will be set up for processes, policies and products.  For 120,000 people to access this kind of social networking, they must be using Web 2.0 tools and a good size IT staff. 

May time to look into this for my company.

Cheers
