I am pleased to announce that AIIM's new white paper, "Systems of Engagement and the Future of Enterprise IT" is now available at http://www.aiim.org/futurehistory. This white paper describes the current state of enterprise IT vs. the increasing consumerization of technology as reflected in the ubiquity of mobile devices and the surge in usage of commercial social technologies like Facebook and Twitter.

As the white paper notes, "Why aren't the applications that are critical to any organization as easy to implement as an app on an Android device or the iPhone? Why do consumer applications feel so much cooler than those in our organizations? Why is it - as Tony Zingale from Jive recently said - that we know more about what our high school girlfriend had for dinner than what is going on within our organization?" The bottom line: "How can it be that I am so powerful as a consumer and so LAME as an employee?"
