Enterprise 2.0 at Work: Tweet Jam
Join us on June 10 from 11-1 EST for a tweet jam focused on making Enterprise 2.0 work.

Allow me to elucidate.

What’s a Tweet Jam
Musicians jam together by riffing off of a common theme; playing off of each other to create something unique and learning from each other as they do. With Twitter, we can do the same, 140 characters at a time. A Tweet Jam is a fast-paced conversation around a topic. simply a time and a place to gather on Twitter around a hashtag topic and learn from each other. Anyone can ask, or answer, a question.

What’s the AIIM E20 Jam (#e2j)?
Simple really: we want everyone to get a little smarter about this social media stuff. Our theme can be loosely described as “Enterprise 2.0 at work.” While we know it’s only 140 characters at a time, We want to generate questions and discussions about how to REALLY make the concepts of Enterprise 2.0 work in the real world. We will have questions lined up to kick-start the conversation (our draft list is below).

Have a question? Respond to this post, send me a tweet, or email me at bduhon@aiim.org. Can’t think of any? Join us on June 10 and let the conversation spark ideas for you.

How Do I “Watch?”
It’s easy. Log in to Twitter (or your favorite Twitter front end; I like Hootsuite). Then use the hashtag: #e2j to follow the discussion. To more easily follow the discussion, you can set up a separate column in Tweetdeck, Hootsuite, or something similar and use #e2j as your search term. You can also use tweetchat.com (thanks to Steve Radick for the suggestion). Sign in using your twitter handle, type #e2j into the box at the top of the screen, and tweetchat will follow the discussion – best of all, without you having to remember to put in the hashtag every time you write a new tweet.
