DISQUS

Zoli Erdos · 2 years ago

I really like Wetpaint, but never considered it a project-oriented collaboration tool.  It's more oriented towards community creation - in fact for that purpose it's the friendliest platform avaialable today.  Business -even small projects -  requires a few additional features like document handling (attachments, version control..etc), email integration ..etc. 

JotSpot was quite good for that, too bad it's gone. Socialtext used to be quite ugly, but the new UI is quite nice - it misses a few features though.  The new kid on the block is  Zoho's Wiki , with quite a few features for an initial beta release. It already supports embedding documents, spreadsheets, presentations, videos..etc, and with improved integration to the full Zoho suite later this year it will be a killer combination.

Just a quick plug for PBWiki, the little company that could in which I'm an investor:

While WetPaint gets plenty of press, notice that PBWiki, which is spending a fraction of the money, is holding steady at double the traffic of WetPaint:

Another quick plug for Sampa (I'm the founder). We are not a Wiki play, but you pretty much can do everything that you can do with Wetpaint and PBWiki, including a whole bunch of other things.

Sampa is a site/blog service. We are also running on a shoestring budget.

Blimey - As it's mention my company day, I have one more to add

Wiki/group/self-generating portal/auto-tagging/RSS in-out

We take all of a community's knowledge, however generated, and keep it in one place, so you haven't got the problem of having siloed applications.

Perhaps most importantly, we "read" everything, automatically linking and tagging it, so if you get an e-mail that relates to something in the wiki, you get a hyperlink through to it, automatically.

This enables us to build a full community portal, which self updates, based on the content of what is going on in the community, through mail, wiki or feeds

It allows users to get content out the way they want it - Just want to know the new topics that are cropping up? Subscribe to the RSS feed. Want to see who was spoken about last week, and what the updates wiki entries are? Get an "intelligent" newsletter.

All the best
