IBM unveiled a range of Web 2.0 and collaboration tools to enable enterprise mashups and social software, and help clients improve agility and speed decision-making for an increasingly virtual, global workforce.
"Web 2.0 for business is about empowering users with the content, social connections and mashup tools to solve business problems," said Michael Rhodin, general manager, IBM Lotus Software. "Today's announcement illustrates the ongoing commitment of IBM to deliver innovation to our customers."
Lotusphere attendees received an early look at IBM's commercial mashup maker, IBM Lotus Mashups. Building on its leadership in the mashup space for more than two years, IBM Lotus Mashups allows non-technical users to easily create enterprise mashups. To solve real business problems with mashups, users can create ad hoc visualizations by blending enterprise and Web-based data.
In addition, IBM introduced the next release of its popular social software for business, IBM Lotus Connections. Since the announcement of Lotus Connections at Lotusphere 2007, it has been deployed by hundreds of organizations around the world. Expecting to be released in the first half of 2008, plans for Lotus Connections 2.0 include several new features such as a new homepage.
