Social Computing in PLM and the Scarce Resource of Attention

I have struggled over this one for the past several days because the post puts forward a compelling and brilliant observation – but I can’t quite grasp the analogy when applied to my world – social computing in PLM. I woke up this morning with a clear thought in my head on it (look up “get a life” on Wikipedia, see my picture) and decided it was time to share my thoughts. So here they are.

Siemens Talks about Siemens (PLM)

September 24, 2009 by Jim Brown Leave a Comment

I had the chance to talk with … Siemens (the manufacturer) and Siemens PLM (their PLM software group) last week as a participant in an PLM industry analysts meeting. The meeting was full of interesting updates on their PLM products, but one thing that really struck me was Siemens talking about Siemens.

When Siemens acquired UGS I saw some real promise and some real potential problems, it was interesting to get an update and a new perspective.

People Tagging in Product Development

September 14, 2009 by Jim Brown 1 Comment

What I learned this week … was sparked by some recent social networking announcements on people tagging. The most recent was that Facebook plans to offer tagging very similar to what Twitter offers. This follows other announcements around geo-tagging, but I am really most interested in how tagging people can help in product development (and overall in product innovation).
