SAP research on Twitter! Message-ID: <49230AE5.1010707@stanford.edu> (This is not about open source but social software but I think much of the ideas are the same hence the posting. Feel free to distribute further. Thanks! --Dirk) Are you a user of Twitter? Have you heard of Twitter but never used it? Are you interested in improving workplace communication and collaboration? If so, we would like to invite you to participate in our research project on ?Twitter for the Enterprise.? The research project aims to understand how Twitter can be used within corporations to improve communication and collaboration. For this, we would like to understand how people are using Twitter for personal purposes and how they can imagine using it for business purposes. If you are not using or are not familiar with Twitter, we would like to hear your reaction to what Twitter means for people and whether you can imagine using it (and how). We are broadly interested in the benefits you may see or concerns you may have. The research is carried out using focus groups at the SAP campus in Palo Alto. SAP Research is the global technology research unit of SAP, with a network of 13 research centers on five continents. The group significantly contributes to SAP?s product portfolio and extends its leading position in the market by identifying and shaping emerging IT trends and generating breakthrough technologies through applied research. Participants will be invited to the SAP campus and participate in a 90 minute focus group session. Afterwards, you are invited to a free lunch at SAP?s cafeteria, including German pastries and desserts. Any information gained will be anonymized. Final research results will be published. As a participant you will be the first to receive the report. To participate, please send email to dirk.riehle at sap.com. We very much look forward to hearing from you!
