When this book was published nearly four years ago, it shook the U.S. business world with its claim that we've barely begun to imagine the ways in which the web will transform our lives as workers and consumers. Later, “Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything
” was published in 26 languages and was named a finalist for the Goldman Sachs/Financial Times Business Book of the Year award. “Wikinomics” became a popular buzz word, and the ideas first pronounced by the authors of the book influenced the minds of many business people. I’m not an exception. “Wikinomics” had a great impact on my views on executing business, collaboration and project management. This was one of the reasons why I decided to start my "Win a Book of the Week" series with it. The second reason is that this book is a perfect way to start your Enterprise 2.0 journey, as it explains the transformation of the business environment by Web 2.0 technologies in very plain terms.
