The Global Intranet Trends Report is available and the executive summary is free (and the full report is available to order).

Intranet 2.0 on the rise, but barely
The adoption of Intranet 2.0 (Web 2.0) tools in the past two years has barely grown while organizations and intranet managers focus on more pressing priorities.
It notes that only “6% have blogs in general use (another 23% have them implemented it in some form) while 45% are still in test mode. Only 7% have implemented commenting tools (e.g. post a comment to a story on the intranet) in general use (another 35% have implemented it in some form).”
For intranet leaders the issues of content, ownership & governance, intranet awareness and use, search engine effectiveness and usability and navigation are more pressing.
Adoption of new tools is running slowly – just like the Moore adoption curve predicts.
