"Greening our IT products, applications, services, and practices is both an economic and an environmental imperative, as well as our social responsibility. Innovations in environmentally sustainable IT will be the key to success now and in the future."

"Using technology to manage and deliver learning through enterprise e-learning applications is critical to meeting the challenges of today's fast-paced, quickly changing digital world."
-- Lance Dublin, Guest Editor
Developing, delivering, and managing learning is really no big deal. We've been doing it for years. What's all the fuss about?
As we've done for the past couple of years, we are starting off the new year of CBR with another installment of our yearly series on trends and technologies for the coming year. This is the third yearly issue of CBR where we ask our contributors to look forward to the coming year and see what technologies and IT trends we can expect to endure, which ones are emerging, and which ones seem to be losing steam. Our ability to do trending and year-over-year comparisons is strengthening with every survey and the cumulating of results. We have been very careful in keeping some of the questions consistent so that we can comment on changes over time. Our contributors offer some interesting food for thought and insight based on the data.
"For me, Enterprise 2.0 is best thought of as a set of technologies, not as a business philosophy. In fact, I am of the mind that if you approach Enterprise 2.0 as a business philosophy — or even worse, as a new philosophy — most likely you will be led astray."
-- Vince Kellen, Guest Editor
This issue of CBR continues our series on innovation and the role of IT in enabling it.
