Blake’s Takes…
This was mostly the two presenters waxing nostalgic on their favorite Yammer campaigns. They did provide four really good slides on how to set yourself for success with Yammer.
Yammer, in the case of the two examples given, was used in a unique way to solve a business problem–how to sell surplus booze, in one example–w/o designing and building some complex solution. Yammer was leveraged to rapidly solve these problems. So Yammer is more than enterprise FaceBook.
