TIBCO and Huddle come together to bring customers a single platform for social collaboration

In our August 2013 analysis of TIBCOs social collaboration capabilities, one of the areas we highlighted was the weak support in its enterprise social networking platform, tibbr, for more structured document- centric and task-based scenarios. An encouraging roadmap was promised, and were pleased to see that TIBCO is now delivering on it.

At its TUCON customer conference event this October TIBCO made a number of announcements which further the companys aim to provide what they describe as a unified collaboration experience. The announcements came in two flavours: content discovery, aggregation and publication; and social task and project collaboration.

In the first of its announcements TIBCO promised to make each of its 6.5 million paid tibbr users a publisher, enabling users to find, publish and share content from a variety of sources within the enterprise using the new tibbr Pages app. At first glance, making it easier to create pages might look like a content proliferation nightmare waiting to happen but fear not, as the publishing environment also manages content entitlement policies, as well as allowing administrators to control who can see what, when and how.

In a second announcement TIBCO announced the availability of two new apps for the tibbr platform. The first, tibbr Files, enables users to search for, discover and work on files scattered across multiple on-premise and cloud-based file storage applications, including Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, Huddle and SharePoint. The second app, tibbr Tasks, adds social task management capabilities to the platform, enabling people to create, assign and track tasks and projects.

Last, but by no means least, the third announcement builds on this integration significantly, with news of a strategic partnership with Huddle, a provider of SaaS-based file storage and sharing capabilities. The partnership gives Huddle customers access to the tibbr environment, adding a layer of social collaboration capabilities to its content storage and sharing play. In return, tibbr users now have full use of Huddles content collaboration service.

For TIBCO these announcements strengthen its position in the B2B social collaboration market, not only through the addition of more advanced features for content creation and collaboration, but also through the access to potential new customers its partnership with Huddle affords itthe private London-based company claims 80 percent of the Fortune 500 as customers, as well as 80 percent of UK government departments. (Could an acquisition be on the cards at some point we wonder?)

These announcements are also indicative of a current trend I discussed in my recent webinarnamely the convergence of applications and tools for social collaboration and task- or project-based collaboration. (You can watch a free replay here.)

This is a rapidly changing market sector, with vendors like TIBCO that previously focused on the softer people and relationship-based aspects of enterprise social networking and collaboration now adding support for more structured content and task-based activities. Likewise, vendors of tools focused on file storage and sharing (like Huddle), and applications for more structured, process-driven activities are now starting to add social functionality.

With others vendors like IBM, Jive, Igloo, and Telligent from the social collaboration side (to name but a few) and vendors like Clarizen, asana and LiquidPlanner from the task and project management world (again, to name but a few) all aiming their sights on providing a single platform which enables the best of both these worlds, the fight now is for vendors to establish dominance as the primary interface / access point for team workspaces, task and project management, and other flavours of social collaboration and networking activities. Well keep you posted on developments.

Internet and social networking sites have created a virtual world, and Indore has been sucked into it. The networking is connecting people, which is a good sign in a nuclear family age. But it is also altering the behaviour of the urban population, at an alarming proportions.

A study conducted by students of MGM Medical College reveals that about 17 per cent of people find it very hard to stay away from internet (predominently surfing social networking sites) and about 15 per cent said that the over use of internet have affected their relationships.

Youngs Criteria was the study and a set of questions was used to indentify internet addicts.

Though the study was conducted on a small sample size of 242 people over a period of four months, its findings are significant and scary. It found that about 50 per cent people use internet on very consistent basis and 13 per cent are found to be internet addicts.

Psychiatrist Dr Razdan Ramgoolam said, From an eight year old to a forty year old person, mostly everyone is obsessive of social-networking.

Recently, an eight year-old boy was brought to Dr Ramgoolam for consultation. His parents were worried about the boys addiction to social-networking sites. He has made 60 friends on a social-networking site and doesnt go to school without his phone.

On the similar lines, a married couple came to the psychiatrist due to their troubled relationship. They have a kid too; the husband was addicted to social-networking and used to be imersed in his phone even at midnight.

The doctors said, Overuse of anything is an addiction and it adversely affects behavior. It contributes to stress, lack of concentration, forgetfulness, poor performance etc.

The study was conducted by Abhineet Jain, Abhishek Sharma, Amrita Tripathi and Ankita Mishra under the guidance of Dr Sanjay Dixit and Dr Harish Shukla.

For the past three decades, a killer has been on the loose.

That killer is AIDS. It seems that in some areas Jacksonville is snuffing it out.

So far this year, no HIV positive babies have been born to mothers who carry the virus, said Max Wilson, program administrator for disease control at the Florida Department of Health in Duval County.

Thats an accomplishment, considering that about 20 years ago that number was in the teens, he said.

We had between 80 to 100 infants exposed to HIV this year, Wilson told me. None have HIV zero for 80 isnt too bad.

And the rate of HIV among black women in the area is declining.

Seven years ago, we saw that rate climbing, but now were in the second year of declining HIV rates for African-American women, Wilson said. Theyve had a lot of conferences, a lot of awareness campaigns We think thats made a difference.

AWARENESS IS LACKING

Unfortunately, awareness campaigns still struggle to pierce the consciousness of black men and teenagers when it comes to being on guard against HIV.

For the men, its about stigma. They dont want to face the fact that theyre having sex with men. But for young people, HIV has an accomplice: sexualized images and perceptions that HIV is no longer a threat. It is.
