As we get back to work after the holidays the new year kicks off with a lot of promise and a lot of excitement. Just as we cross over into 2010 with the final version 1.0 of our Communifire software platform, there is more to be excited about reading Jeremiah Owyang’s latest post on the web-strategist site. According to a survey which asked “What emerging technologies do you want to see covered in the near future (a choice of 3 from a possible 6 technologies) 29.7% voted Community Platforms as “Most Important”, 37.5% voted it as second most important and 32.8% voted it as third most important putting it up there with SCRM and Mobile Social Networks as the 3 hottest technologies for the coming year.
The last year saw social strategies adopted by businesses pick up in a huge way and there was a lot of learning which took place and shared by the early adopters. This year one could expect more of those who have been silently observing from the sidelines to take the plunge into developing their own social strategies, build stronger relationships with stakeholders online and develop their online social communities putting all the learnings into play.
As the year unfolds we’ll continue to follow social technologies and share insights into building better social communities with our readers. Stay tuned because if the buzz around this space currently is any indication of where things are expected to go this year, then 2010 looks like interesting year for the community platform.
