Hey Guys, I'm hoping someone here can give me a bit of help please. I currently work for a very large Enterprise Software Vendor. I currently work as an account manager selling Technology products mainly Database, Performance, Monitoring, Security, Analytics, etc.

A new division is being set up around "Enterprise 2.0" and they are looking for Sales Specialists - I want to go for the role cause i am very interested in it. It is a hot topics and definitely a fast growing area in the industry.

I've always had a hige interest in wen 2.0 - I read a lot of the blogs like techcrunch and just love what web 2.0 is doing for the internet - and have always though there is massive scope for how it can transform the Enterprise too. I only have some very basic web design skills but I have managed to make a joomla portal with some social networking ability.

Anyway, what I'm looking for it before my interview to read up and do my homework on all of this area so i can impress my managers. I'm hoping you guys can point me in the right direction of articles/blogs or anything that would be useful to me in preperation. "Busswords" and general management bullsh1t can go a long way sometimes, I just want to make sure that I prepare as best I can.

Any assistance you guys can give me would really be appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Zascar

Andrew McAfee at Harvard Business School - he was the first person I remember talking about Enterprise 2.0.

There was someone else pretty big in the area too, but I can't think of his name - if it comes to me I'll post it...

Edit:

Not the guy I was thinking of, but Jeremiah Owyang writes a lot about web 2.0 tech, a lot of it from the perspective of companies...
