I would agree with this - wiki's are an example where collaborative social technologies are far superior to policies and standards which sit stale in PDF's which are updated at maximum once a year are I hardly think "it is a solution looking for a problem". There is a healthy demand for social media tools both inside and outside the workplace. Effective enterprises encourage collaboration and diversity of thinking - especially as workforces are increasingly globalized. Social media tools can be a lot better than the existing collaboration tools such as Sharepoint at doing this. Where I have seen tools like Yammer deployed it is the business users not the technical IT users who are the first to jump on board
