Here is a new book that is very relevant to Research 2.0 and in particular Innovation 2.0. This book entitled "Innovation Passport: The IBM First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) Journey From Research to Reality" has been written by Mary Jo Frederich and Peter Andrews. Mary Jo is the director of the IBM Industry Solutions Labs and First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) program. I highly recommend you reading this book if you want to know more about research- industry interplay and innovation. Some chapters are particularily interesting from a Research 2.0 / Enterprise 2.0 / Innovation 2.0 point of view. In particular have a look at the conclusion. It is worth! For those who are attending CASCON currently, I've this book here (I'm in the demo booth), and will be happy to give it to you if you want to have a look at it ;-)

You have to go to the menu "My Pages" (BTW if someone have a better name for that I would greatly appreciated it. I tried "My Zone", "My Home", etc.), and there you should have the "Twitter" application (if not you can add it with a little button Add Application). You have to configure this application using the configuration button as shown below.

What is nice when you do that is the message you send from this web site will be related to the topic of this web site (otherwise just use your twitter account), so the message that appear here will not be polluted by all tweets.
BTW are your happy with twitter for research 2.0? Any usage for software engineering 2.0? Please comment...
