Abstract:

Web 2.0 brings about a new dimension of imagination and innovation for organizations to use information as a strategic business asset to gain a competitive advantage. This session begins by reviewing the basics of Web 2.0 (mashups, feeds, widgets, etc), and briefly considers the business benefits of Web 2.0 solutions. The main topic shows how, using simple tooling, you can unleash your IMS transaction assets into the Web 2.0 community with very little technical knowledge.
