Social software in the workplace

without comments

Interesting news at NY Times: IBM is set to launch social software tools in the corporate world.

(Hmm… I wonder if Sacha Chua’s ongoing research is part of this tool set?)

Here at work, we use Lotus Notes for typical “groupware” applications: calendars, email, instant messaging, and task management. I have also explored the use of blogs and wikis in my previous companies, but they did not really took off that well. Perhaps the IBM experience can lead the way in exploring the use of these thriving media for the workplace.
