Gartner Looks at Collaborative Tech

Steve Rubel reports:

Gartner today released its Goldie Locks-esque “2005 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies” report. The research identifies the tech industry's “just right porridge.” It highlights the technologies that have moved from conception, to market over-enthusiasm, through a period of disillusionment, to an eventual understanding of its relevance in the market. Blogging, podcasting, RSS and wikis all made the list. This is a good sign. Gartner is telling IT pros to invest in these technologies.
