ITSinsider has some great posts here and here on diagrams for figuring out this crazy, constantly changing Enterprise 2.0 world.  The complexity and highly integrated nature of this world makes it necessary to find ways to describe how components co-exist and interrelate so that both avid users and offline executives can understand without their collective eyes rolling back in their heads.

Humor is always a good start as in this Social Media Map posted on ThreeMinds.

[editor added later] Also found the Mobile 2.0 tagcloud by Heike Scholz as another interesting example of how to depict what’s becoming important in that arena. It is obviously modeled after the Web 2.0 cloud by Markus Angermeier we’ve all seen many times by now I’m sure.

How can we do this better? more clearly? more accurately?
