I’m a great fan of Wiki technology.  Anita Campbell tipped me off to a new wiki resource aimed at Small Business, where she is a major contributor.  The site is owned and operated by Rex Hammock of Hammock Publishing, and you can get an explanation of the site’s purpose, history and Rex’s objectives here […]

I spotted an interesting review by Richard McManus of a web 2.0 calendar product called 30Boxes.  That lead me to Richard’s recent ZDNet article reviewing the likely contenders in a Web Office Suite, some of which I’ve referenced here before.  He also mentions recent announcements by Google, and the possibility of a Google calendar product.  Office […]
