Social Network Mashups in Business — Wikis, multiplayer interactive games, and other Web 2.0 technologies are entering the workplace, and will affect business -- especially collaborative business functions such as project management. A group has been developing a white paper that describes the landscape of social networks and virtual worlds and clarifies the enhanced value propositions of these environments for business development and globalization. Their findings indicate that it is possible to organize a community of networks into a mediated community that produces value for an organization. While email and project collaboration networks have digitized and webified traditional dirt-world workflows, Web 2.0 technologies alternately promise and threaten radical process transformation. How will new-generation tools -- and the new generation of users who use them -- affect the roles, responsibilities, rights and risks of all project participants?
