Well, it's taken a few years, but my original thesis of web technology replacing existing enterprise software infrastructure appears to be taking hold. Enterprise 2.0 is fundamentally about professional consumers, or "prosumers" bringing web 2.0 technology to work with them to build now classes of applications. We've seen the same thing happen in the past with Microcomputer applications(Lotus 1-2-3), with Client Server applications, and with intranet applications running against web servers. Now, the next generation has arrived. Blogs, enterprise search tools, wikis, are all going to supplant/augment/replace more expensive applications.
