Really, corporate America, get with the times!

I am looking at this month's issue of Training magazine. On page 12, they've featured the results of the poll, "Is your organization using Web 2.0 technologies?"

All the time - 9%
Experimenting with them - 44%
Not yet, but formal plans are underway - 16%
No, we are not permitted - 31%

It's a good thing for corporations jobs are more challenging to find right now. If it were an employee's market, I think it would be important for these numbers to change in order to attract young talent. Even worse, 46% of attendees at Training 2009 Conference and Expo indicated they do NOT have accounts on any of the major social networks. All I can say is, "Yikes, people, get with the program!" Sure, Web 2.0 doesn't solve all performance issues - not even close. But it can make work a little more fun while you tackle those issues, right?
