We now know that developing talent isnt only about the learning we as businesses want to provide, but the learning they need to do their jobs better. Yet, very few companies have made the shift to thinking of learning as a continual part of the employee workday…
It costs real money for employees to not have efficient access to the information they need to do their jobs… $3,300 per person per year. There’s opportunity to make big efficiency gains there, but we need to think about learning differently to get there.

Social search takes many forms, ranging from simple shared bookmarks or tagging of content with descriptive labels to more sophisticated approaches that combine human intelligence with computer algorithms.[2][3]The search experience takes into account varying sources of metadata, such as collaborative discovery of web pages, tags, social ranking, commenting on bookmarks, news, images, videos, knowledge sharing, podcasts and other web pages. Example forms of user input include social bookmarking or direct interaction with the search results such as promoting or demoting results the user feels are more or less relevant to their query.[4]
