Des<\/a> has mentioned a few times how "Web 2.0" is a pile of hype with no substance despite the fact that the pointy-haired-bosses of this world think it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread. Well, today’s Daily WFT<\/a> installment reminded me of the one piece of management waffle I hate more than all the Web2.0 hype – Enterprise. Saying your software is Enterprise Level seems to be code for saying it’s "too complex for the job it’s being used for and built for an extortionately high amount but it will look great on paper and PowerPoint". If someone can tell me without respoting to management speak what it means for software to be ‘Enterprise Level’ I’ll consider changing my mind but right now it strikes me as nothing but hype designed to get idiotic managers to take on your product and nothing more concrete than that.
