TeamIQ (Latest IBM project)

A few months ago I had an idea pop in my mind (can't remember if it was in the shower or not). You know, one of those ideas that you can't stop thinking about. An idea that you think will change the way your company works.

Since this idea was not part of my day job at IBM, I've spent any spare time explaining the concept to developers so they could help me make it happen.

The idea...drumroll please..TeamIQ, a new tool that aggregates the social tools of teams, is ready for prime time. We have tools inside the IBM firewall that are similar to those available to the public. The world has del.icio.us, IBM has dogear. The world has Google Docs, IBM has cattail. The world has facebook, IBM has beehive. The list goes on.

The new tool, TeamIQ, enables teams to input a list of their co-workers' email addresses and in response they receive a table that lists links to their coworkers' Beehive connections, Cattail files, etc. For example, if you are in a meeting you can paste in the Invitee list to find out what your co-workers are doing and who they are connected to.

I'm excited to evangelize and enhance this tool the next few months.

Thank you for helpful review. It was simple to read, but I'd like to add that if your company needs to be updated try software development services.
