Checking out Lotus Quickr!
Posted by Vivek Agarwal on August 20, 2007
Lately I have been looking into IBM Lotus Quickr – the new generation of Lotus QuickPlace that was launched in late June. It is a Web 2.0 version of team collaboration software that enables groups of people (aka teams) to collaborate and share content. One of its winning features is the concept of templates that enables you to quickly hit the ground running. And another reason why I am now interested in this is the availability on the WebSphere Portal platform – while it still cannot be installed into an existing WPE install, it at least offers an opportunity to utilize the team collaboration functionality without relying on Domino. I am fairly intrigued by Quickr and hope to look into it some more in the near future – will be back with my findings.
