Corporate Bandwidth 2.0

With the world moving towards Web2.0, the internet of Video’s, Podcasts, Screencasts and everything in your browser window, the hunger for Bandwidth increases! Corporate world does tackle this problem by curbing the access to ‘unproductive’ resources. Well, that’s right in a way, but the question that arises to my mind is How Long? When are companies going to shift their gears and turn themselves v2.0?

All of the content sharing has shifted to video’s which gives the end-user a better UX. Though there could be much content which could be termed as ‘unproductive’, still one must not forget the other side of the coin which offers vast resource of helpful information.

I would just say, Google search could be used for various ‘unproductive’ search as well, but does that qualify to block Google(or any Search site for that matter) from being used for productive use in corporate world?? I am sure most of us would not even live a day without visiting a search site page (for me Google).

I believe no one would like to keep an employee who sits doing nothing but ‘unproductive’ work? And I feel every employee of any organization would be very well aware of that!

So, I would vote for tackling the Web2.0 world by not blocking access to them, but becoming one of them!

Lord, may the Corporate Bandwidth turns green to 2.0. Amen! J
