‘Yup, Facebook At Work Is Real’ – Forrester
Rob Kopolwitz says, “Facebook loves to play and test new things. After a couple of months of rumors, this morning they announced that they’re going to play in the enterprise for a while and see if it’s fun. And for the first time we have an inkling of what “Facebook at Work” will mean.
First off, we don’t know what we don’t know because they don’t know what they don’t know. And they know it. This is truly some early testing. Things like pricing are still down the road to be figured out. They have announced a small number of pilot organizations that have signed on. These organizations will have access to a Facebook instance that will be accessible only to authenticated users. So, essentially that much loved Facebook experience (including mobile) will be available to just the users in your organization or others that have been approved for authenticated access. Facebook hopes that workers will demand the service they love in their personal lives to collaborate, communicate and socialize in the workplace. So, that’s where the play begins: testing if we want that user experience we know and love as part of our workday”.
