Enterprise Tagging Service social software saves IBM $4.6 million a year by Mixed by Gregory Culpin (Knowledge Officer @ Whatever) in Enterprise 2.0

Interesting posting at a blog for Enterprise Social Search - IBM set up an Enterprise Tagging Search service and have reported excellent results

"What they found was amazing when you look at it in context: the average person saved 12 seconds, across the 286000+ searches performed through ETS each week. This sums up to 955 hours saved each week across the company. In terms of cost savings, it amounts to a rough estimate of $4.6 million a year, in terms of productivity gain."
