Remember when internal communications people  talked about the ‘paperless office’? No? Well, it doesn’t matter anyway, because we’ve all changed out mind now. Staff still love hitting print, so the office printer can stay. But hey – here’s a nutty idea. Since we’re stuck with these huge beige elephants, what say we actually figure out how to use them? The nerds in your IT department are the only people in your organisation who’ve actually read the office printer’s manual, and know to properly use it.So...

I read with interest the blog posts by Tony Byrne ‘Death of the Intranet‘ and by Martin White ‘Death of the Intranet: ‘The Times They are a-changin’‘.
