Getting started on B to B collaboration via yammer







Having been on yammer for 2 weeks I wanted to
share some tips on this b to b enterprise software.



1)
yammer beginners should watch

2) Tools are your real friends: yammerfox, iphone, blackberry, desktop.

3) Click members (see right) & invite by field of interest or sort by messages or followers. Remember its a filter for information you deem useful.


4) Join country groups or client groups to narrow down messages (yams) of interest


5)
Explore More\files or links to see content already posted


6) View tags or indexes of content by keywords





7) Filter
your inbox. Create a quick rule
which pushes all your daily yam updates into a folder. Lotus users see screen shot.










In the next session I will cover posting tips, time management and yammer as a feed burner.
