Here comes another silo, "My DeveloperWorks"


Tags :


I have been playing around in Pass-It-Along, the IBM Alphaworks site for some time now.  Basically kicking tires and always striking a flat.  But this presentation popped up today showing the coming changes for DeveloperWorks as a whole.  Basically a combo of Lotus Connections, Pass-It-Along and some other things crammed together.  Here is a summary they are introducing in "My DeveloperWorks":

  • Home page design changes
  • Profiles - yes make another one
  • in-line commenting
  • ratings
  • community links
  • tagging
  • it seems you can surface other web personalities, maybe hooks?
  • more groups
  • users can become topic experts
  • widgets to personalize your homepage
  • blogs ?!?!
  • Activities
  • bookmarking
  • knowledge paths (this is Pass-It-Along)

So what we get is another Lotus Connections install integrated with Pass-It-Along.  I can't take many more of these when the Notes client alone will not let you run more than one Activity plug-in to surface all of these!
