According to Tim O'Reilly, the founder and chief executive of O'Reilly Media, the computer book publisher, and an evangelist for open source technologies, creativity is no longer about which companies have the most visionary executives, but who has the most compelling "architecture of participation."
This research paper discusses the following topics:
- Mass collaboration and the key concepts that are vital to its success.
- Current Web 2.0 technologies that are being used by organizations, along with some success stories.
Based on this study, an plan was developed for implementing a wiki-based platform for sharing information within the Concurrent Technologies Corporation.
