Here we are waving farewell to another August and heading into a long weekend, not to mention, it's still sunny (where I am at least). Things could be worse.
This week we kicked-off some of our summer cobwebs and got to work on our September editorial focus: Information Management Agility. While that topic was warming up, Enterprise Collaboration was still fighting for the spotlight.
Of course, Cisco's multi-billion dollar efforts to acquire Skype drew many eyes, as did our round-up of leading social platforms for enterprise collaboration. The release of Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management is always a source of chatter. Irina Guseva dissected the highlights, but gently reminded us that reports such as this are just one data point, and are absolutely not a substitute for doing your homework when selecting a CMS.
