While Twitter goes from strength to strength (at least from a user perspective), there’s a growing number of companies looking getting into the enterprise micro-blogging market such as Present.ly and Yammer.
The latest competitor on the scene is Socialtext, which has introduced a product called Socialtext Signals. Signals is part of Socialtext’s Dashboard, which provides a company’s employees with variety of tools, including a Wiki, RSS feeds, tag cloud and OpenSocial widgets.
“As the enterprise landscape transforms to incorporate social media tools, many customers told us of their need to integrate a micro-blogging function into their existing collaboration platform,” Socialtext CEO Eugene Lee said in a statement. “Signals creates a new workplace environment that amplifies and complements other collaboration activity, allowing individuals to transparently work and collaborate on common goals through a secure social messaging application within the organization.”
