I have far fewer problems with SPAM and virus attacks on my company provided laptop that my wife has on her home PC. I expect the same collaboration on my smart device (mine will be an Intermec rugged mobile PDA of course) with the flexibility to add in applications and access to websites that I need to conduct my integrated work/family/leisure/community life style. I want some help and control but not a rigid limitation of choices. As a corporate user, I appreciate the protection my IT department gives me.

IT, in most instances, has missed the boat and is still standing on the dock wondering what happened. I've been walking my own CIO through a number of issues: - why we have become irrelevant. - options to provide a Business Class platform. - why we must act as a service provider to our business. Collaboration at it's best is an: anytime activity that can occur anywhere on the globe on any device. We all collectively need to drive this enablement. “Guerrilla Collaboration” is an observation of something that has already occured in many organizations.

I’ve been walking my own CIO through a number of issues:
- why we have become irrelevant.
- options to provide a Business Class platform.
- why we must act as a service provider to our business.

Collaboration at it’s best is an: anytime activity that can occur anywhere on the globe on any device.

We all collectively need to drive this enablement.
