This has been a great year for Serus and for the members of our community.  I haven’t discussed as much about Serus in this blog, since you can find that at the Serus web site.  Suffice to say that we grew by over 100%, and won a Deloitte award for 7th fastest growing company in Silicon Valley.

During this year, our visibility increased greatly, in media, with analysts, with organizations such as FSA (now GSA), and through this blog.  We recorded over 5,000 blog hits between the end of August and now (prior to that, our blogging system didn’t keep statistics).  Our most popular postings were:

• Best Practices for Fabless Semiconductor Companies (parts I and II) – this was published in October, and has become our number one article.
• Notes on Enterprise Software Architecture (all parts) – second most popular, and provides a reference point for many of the important ideas in our software
• Where’s the Content?  Reviewing Content Collaboration Software – third most popular.  This was a major read during early fall, as many people were interested in the choices we were making on software such as blogs and wiki’s.

A few observations about the trends during the year:  while the “enterprise 2.0″ term was very hot during the first half, I haven’t heard it mentioned as much recently.  Instead, we see an upcoming term being “collaborative decision environment“.

During 2008, we will be continuing to publish, and are expecting to get even more hits, because the blog will be tied to our new corporate web site.

See you in 2008!
