Well done Richard! :)

I can't think of a better addition to the RWW team. Looking at the tech blogging landscape, I've always thought that RWW is best positioned to fold in the topic of enterprise social computing.

With Bernard excellent writing and now Susan, this can become the must have resource for enterprises looking to understand the phenomenon that is E2.0.

I'm hoping theres plenty of business activity focus to keep vendors and the the rest of us in the enterprise space honest :p

My go-to source for e2.0 analysis this month is ZDNet, specifically articles by Jennifer Leggio and Dion Hinchcliffe. I get more content directly from bloggers, but ZDNet is my #1 for a group blog focusing on E2.0. I know this is infuriatingly vague feedback, but I'd still recommend you take a hard look at what they're doing right and then do it better.

I promise to come back with actionable recommendations soon once I figure out what it is I like about ZDNet. One thing's for sure, it isn't their registration process or their story volume. They put out a bit more than I can follow, but I really really like the recent work from the two authors I mentioned above.

From what I know of you and of RWW, this is a great move for everyone :)

Wow, this is a win-win-win-win-win. Nice move! We all benefit. Congrats to RWW, Susan, and all of us too.

The other (more snarky) comment goes to Richard: "B2B is back!" Richard, it never left! It's just that the Web 2.0 world has been focused on the consumer Web, where the froth and fun has been for years. Now that startups are looking for revenue, the enterprise looks like a better bet than cash-strapped consumers. Or least, that's my bet.

I look forward to more great insights on Enterprise 2.0 case studies and rollouts, Susan. See you in Boston in June!

You people have no sense of cultural reference.

Congratulations, everyone! It surely is a win-win situation for all of us, faithful readers, throughout the years! Well done!! :-D

I like the brief a lot, but I think there is a :

ReadWriteWeb’s Enterprise channel will focus exclusively on how the evolving Internet and its ecosystem of related products coupled with the 2.0 philosophies of openness, collaboration, transparency, and sharing are disrupting markets and revamping business processes all over the globe

What I meant to say was:

Congratulations Richard and Susan. I like RRW very much. I look forward to some good coverage of that which they call E2.0 or enterprise social computing. I am Susan will do great.

I like the brief a lot, but I think there is a simpler way of saying this bit, which I see as key:

ReadWriteWeb’s Enterprise channel will focus exclusively on how the evolving Internet and its ecosystem of related products coupled with the 2.0 philosophies of openness, collaboration, transparency, and sharing are disrupting markets and revamping business processes all over the globe

There is an opportunity for real journalism in this space, and I would love to see some. Aside from some good individual blogs, coverage has been little better than either the computer trade press of yore or the newer TechCrunch variety. We have a once in a generation opportunity to contribute towards the redefinition of some key aspects of business and the rethinking of organisational and market structures. Less 'companies and markets' style startup soap operas and more analysis is required. RWW is looking like a place that could provide that :-)
