IdoNotes (and sleep)

I have now received a handful of emails saying I need to go to IBMr since I am well connected, but I can't get in.  Ugh, a bummer a new site like this opens and I can't play !!
Unlike other social networking sites, IBMr is business oriented
  - First, it allows you to easily find experts, as identified by other IBMers
  - Second, it allows you to highlight your skills and confidently receive feedback from your peers
  - Third, it allows you to anonymously recognize your colleagues and their specific skills and attributes

Together these capabilities actually put all this web 2.0 buzz to work

Well hold crud, I thought Lotus Connections was that.  Profiles, find experts.  I wonder if this will make its way in soon.
 IBMr is a WebAhead development project looking to understand peer feedback and reputation systems.

    It's on IBMs internal network off course you can't get in, unless you go work there :-)

    Hi Chris! Not to worry, you are not. IBMr has got a very strong dependency on the corporate employee directory, so you don't even have an entry in there. I am just surprised you got the invites from those folks, because everyone in the company knows that's just available internally and the way to get in is through inviting other fellow colleagues via e-mail. I guess folks think you *do* work for IBM and everything, which is why you have got them in the first place, but I can assure you that you don't even have a profile in there. You would need to get authenticated as well with the Intranet credentials. Like I said, still surprised to see you got the invites in the first place ... Weird. Oh, well, nevermind, perhaps in its due time you may be able to see it outside of the firewall :-D

    The hilarious part is that I received more than one of them now.

    Are you implying that all the disparate parts of IBM do not work in pefect harmony?

    shocked. Shocked I say.

This will take far more time than I have today. I will start with I was born and still live in St. Louis, MO.

No beach/ocean/coast isn't the best. But with the travel I make up for it.

Don't Panic
