Social Networks Bound Into Enterprises on Trampoline Systems’ SONAR Dashboard

via Information Today News Breaks on 4/28/08

At the risk of being slightly self-incriminating, any diligent office worker within a certain age bracket would probably admit to occasionally venturing onto Facebook to indulge in a little nonwork-related social networking, even during working hours. Far from decrying such habits as hampering workplace productivity, Charles Armstrong, CEO for Trampoline Systems (www.trampolinesystems.com), believes that worker familiarity with and affinity for the ubiquitous social networking site actually enhances their abilities to complete their job functions effectively … once they employ Trampoline Systems' new product, SONAR Dashboard. Introduced on Tuesday during the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco, SONAR Dashboard applies the familiar Facebook schema to an enterprise environment. The company alternatively bills the product as "Facebook for the enterprise" and as the first "intelligent" social network for business.

"From a design standpoint, there isn't much to critique. Measuring 1.75 inches tall by 5.25 inches wide by 5.25 inches deep, the box is slightly smaller than your typical cable modem, but instead having just an Ethernet port on the back, it's equipped with all manner of audio and video outputs: HDMI, component video, S-Video, and composite video ports, as well as digital optical or the standard red/white analog stereo outputs. Currently only stereo sound is available, but 5.1 surround sound could be added via a future firmware upgrade."

A good thought.

""The better you understand the world, the better you'll do," Schachter says. "I really think that in the end, more understanding wins."
