Yes, and believe me the business world at large still runs on Windows/Office from top to bottom. I work at a major financial institution on a data team and we log into Windows 7, open up Excel, log it into our SSAS cube, make pretty graphs and tables, put the results into Power Point, and then send through Exchange to the execs. It will take a very long time to overcome that kind of momentum.

- angrybits 13y agoOh I don't, it's a system that works quite well for us. I was adding a counterpoint to this statement: "Increasingly business wikis and social networks are the norm." I don't believe that to be the case outside of silicon valley, unless you count the stampede of completely terrible sharepoint implementations we have floating around. But I don't think that is what the poster of that statement was referring to.
