Enterprise Social Software (ESS) refers to a social networking layer on top of tradition collaborative tools, which enables content sharing, along with additional features such as document sharing, wikis, micro blogging, shared spaces and communities, amongst other business applications. These solutions provide enterprises with several advantages including increased transparency, better communication of business ideas and information, flexibility and performance along with simplified operations.
Rising need for enterprise internet working amongst employees, partners, distributors, suppliers and others in the business value chain has given way to growing employment of ESS across desktops, laptops and mobile personal devices.

These solutions are well positioned to bring businesses closer, despite time zone barriers and organizational structures.

An 18-year-old American Canyon man was arrested Saturday morning after an officer viewed photos of him on a social networking site in which he allegedly displayed gang signs.
While looking through a social networking website, an officer with the American Canyon Police Department allegedly saw images of Ricardo Gonzalez Almazan, a known gang member, making gang symbols with his hands, police said.
Two other known gang members were also in the photo and one had recently been released from juvenile hall, indicating the photo was taken in the last two months, police said.
The officer contacted Almazan on Saturday morning at his home in the 200 block of Tapestry Lane and arrested him on suspicion of violating probation and participating in a street gang, police said. The other two people shown in the photo were not at the home and were not arrested.
Almazan was booked into the Napa jail.

Last month, we detailed how Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, hasfoughta proposal that could make filing taxes easier and cheaper for millions of Americans.
As we noted, tax activist Grover Norquist and other conservatives havealso opposed the proposal, called return-free filing, which would give many taxpayers the option to receive a pre-filled return that they could simply review, sign and send back, all for free. Return-free filing has been endorsed by many experts and adopted by several European countries.
As it turns out, Norquist has also recently weighed in on the side of the tax prep industry on another issue.
A House bill introduced earlier this year would bar the IRS from offering taxpayers software that would compete with programs like TurboTax. In March, Norquist and otherswrote a letterto members of Congress that urged them to support the bill what they called a pro-taxpayer, anti-IRS power grab legislation.
At issue is how Americans file their taxes and whether electronic filing can be offered directly through the IRS.
The bill is called theFree File Program Act, co-sponsored by Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Ill. and Rep. Ron Kind, D-Wisc. It declares that the IRS, with a few narrow exceptions, may not establish, develop, sponsor, acquire, or make available electronic filing service or tax software.
Roskam declined to comment. Spokespeople for Kind and Norquist did not immediately respond.
The bill would also make permanent theFree Fileprogram, a public-private partnership between the IRS and the tax software industry created in 2002 to offer some taxpayers free electronic filing.
The industry group behind the programboaststhat almost all taxpayers can use software like TurboTax or more primitiveelectronic formsfor free. But access to the more sophisticated software is limited by income. Only about 3.5 million taxpayers used Free File last year, according to aTreasury Department tallythrough the end of April.
The pact governing the partnership, which countsIntuit as a member, includes a sweet deal for the industry: In return for the companies offering free software to some, theIRS agreed not to developits own free, online tax prep services. The current deal expires next year.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Bloor Research and Confio Software will discuss the advantages of using a wait-based approach to measure database performance in a free, live webinar on Thursday, Apr. 18 at 9:00 a.m. ET/2:00 p.m. GMT. In this webinar, called Best Practices in Database Performance Management with Bloor Research, Bloor Research Director Philip Howard will cover the three key elements for monitoring database performance and how a wait-based performance approach will help ensure optimum database performance. Sr. DBA and performance expert, Neil Hambly, will demonstrate how Confio Ignite, a wait-based performance monitoring tool, can be used to proactively manage database performance.
According to Bloor Research, a wait-based approach to measuring database performance is not only more intuitive, but is also more effective in identifying the root cause of database performance problems. Most database monitoring tools focus on server health. Server performance metrics provide a lot of information about what is happening but not about why it is happening. A time or wait-based approach monitoring what the database is waiting on is far more effective and enables DBAs to take a proactive approach to database performance management.
By integrating a wait-based approach for database performance monitoring also called Response Time analysis into Ignite, our customers can quickly pinpoint delays in their end-user service. This key feature enables DBAs, developers and IT managers to identify and troubleshoot performance problems before they disrupt production or performance, said Hambly.
DBAs, developers and IT managers interested in attending this free Confio webinar can register here.
