Susan – am so glad you included PB Works (yes! as easy to use as it is to use peanut butter!) and I like it so much.

It’s terrific how it is evolving now without getting any more challenging to learn the added features.

Am wondering why more developers don’t “go to school” on this.

@Chris,

Alas, I was recently butchered while rushing to get my hair trimmed. I currently resemble a run of the mill CEO. Unless, of course, I wear my awesome new “ass hat” I just absconded with from the recent MindTouch White Elephant party: http://tweetphoto.com/6987687

Thanks Christoph. Hopefully I’ll be hearing about some amazing work you’re doing on MindTouch soon.

Susan — Thanks for the kind words! I’m happy that we share a very high regard for Brian Tullis’ work at Alcoa. Other Traction User Group members include 10 of the top 20 global pharmas, health science firms, consulting and law firms, manufacturers, state and federal agencies, and companies in Japan that everyone would recognize.

We’ll point them all at the E2.0 Adoption Council – to everyone’s benefit. [ See TUG 2009 presentations and videos on http://www.TractionSoftware.com ]

Elves in Providence, Michigan, New York and Virginia are even as we speak preparing a bundle of delightful goodies previewed at TUG to brighten the eyes of current and new TeamPage customers. Ho, Ho, Ho!

Susan, we’d love to give you a demo of eTouch SamePage and think you’d be impressed enough to include it in your next list. What do you say?

Thanks for the Secret Santa love, Susan! It’s definitely worth taking a look at MindTouch as well. They’ve really done more than anyone in the space in the area of being able to glue together legacy systems.

Plus, Aaron has some majorly awesome hair.

Uh, I jumped the first paragraph and concentrate only on the products and your very last question.

It’s funny that @aaron just commented here, because after having read your comment I wanted to mention MindTouch. We actually had a walk-through from the MindTouch guys last week and were very impressed with the product’s capabilities!

@Aaron- I thought about putting MindTouch on the list, but you’re right. Hard to recommend if I’ve never seen the product.

Drats. I feel so left out. You need to review MindTouch. Here’s some reasons why: http://www.mindtouch.com/Customers/Success_Stories?copy=1 Watch the two videos on that page and/or read the mini-studies

Also, MindTouch has tens of millions of users and over 1,000 customers.

Christoph- you win the coffee mug. Email me your mailing address. On Jive and Confluence, well, ya. But both Jive and Confluence are not “underdogs.” They’re market leaders. This post highlights platforms that don’t get the visibility they perhaps deserve.
