Track: *IT Strategy and Management**
*Minitrack:  *Web 2.0 and collaborative value creation  **

  *Motivation *

Web 2.0 refers to the adoption of open technologies and architectural
frameworks to facilitate participative computing. Web 2.0 is about
harnessing the potential of the Internet in a more collaborative and
peer-to-peer manner with emphasis on social interaction. It has less to do
with technology and more to do with a metamorphosis aimed at facilitating
collaborative participation and leveraging the collective intelligence of
peers.



Customer and partner facing processes using Web 2.0 have the potential to
not only radically transform peer-to-peer collaboration, but also
inter-entity collaborations and commerce by enabling various types and
combinations of business-to-consumer (B2C), business-to-business (B2B),
Consumer-to-consumer (C2C), business-to-government etc. collaboration and
commerce. Indeed, Web 2.0 has the potential to enable collaborative value
creation across business partners. These could, for example, include
scenarios such as Rich Internet Applications (RIA) based delivery tracking
system leveraging Web 2.0 standards for desktop-like rich functionality on
client side within a web page. There are opportunities such as providing
rich information on all the convergent services subscribed to by a consumer
(including third party services) leveraging Web 2.0 standards which could be
achieved through the use of Mashups based on content from multiple sources
(exposed using APIS, Web Feeds, Web Services etc.) to create new services.
These could even be multi-channel mashups or RSS feeds. In particular, the
interplay between the emerging Web 2.0 paradigm and the already popular
paradigm of SOA seems to be of special interest owing to the
complementarities of the two schools of thought. While Web 2.0 can offer an
intelligent, rich, customizable, and interactive service consumer base for a
service provider, SOA can offer the standardized conduit for the enterprise
information and data to be consumed by Web 2.0 applications.
