Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Whenever something innovative and different hits the market, the IT industry changes ever so slightly and the change is permanent. With the JotSpot 2.0 wiki building product, you get the feeling that something innovative and different has arrived. However, it's going to cost you.
JotSpot 2.0 takes the concept of the collaborative wiki into a new
space. That space involves elements of groupware, office productivity
software, corporate intranets and web services, all overlaid with the
simplicity of the wiki collaborative model.
This product allows a small group of users or an entire corporation to
build powerful collaborative information repositories comprised of
calendars, spreadsheets, web pages, file repositories, documents, and
photo galleries.
Users get to select the type of application or "page type" they want to
create and share and create hyperlinks to other pages inside the wiki
or documents and pages outside the wiki.
In addition, users can choose which users they want to have permission to view or edit their pages.
"We've created page types for specific tasks like creating a web page,
calendar, spreadsheet, file repository, and a photo gallery. When users
go to the JotSpot wiki, they can simply click 'create new page' and
instantly create a spreadsheet, a corporate intranet, and other
collaborative wikis," said Scott Johnston, Vice President of Products
at JotSpot. "Every page type has all of the collaborative power and
flexibility of wikis: they are editable, allow permissions, offer
version control, and each page type is appropriate for the task at
hand. This is something that only the JotSpot wiki platform can
provide."
"Traditional wikis are too nerdy and only offer one type of
collaboration. This has been a barrier to the mainstream adoption of
wikis," said Joe Kraus, co-founder and CEO of JotSpot. "JotSpot has
redefined what a wiki is by removing the limitations of traditional
wikis and marrying the wiki metaphor with some of the capabilities of
Microsoft Office. We've combined the familiarity and functionality of
desktop applications like Office with the collaborative power and
flexibility of wikis so users can quickly and easily collaborate on all
types of information."
We would love to tell you that this very powerful application is free
and it is if you're only a small bunch of users with limited needs.
However, if you want to do anything useful then you're going to have to
pay for it by the month and it's not particularly cheap.
Pricing for the hosted service is free for five users/maximum of 10
pages; $9.95/month for 10 users and 100 pages; $24.95/month for 25
users and 300 pages; $69.95/month for unlimited users and 1000 pages;
and $199.95/month for unlimited users and unlimited pages. JotSpot 2.0
is available at www.jot.com.
