This blogger says IBM's inclusion of a tool called Dogear in its newly announced Lotus Connections suite of collaboration software validates the business model of a company called Connectbeam, which has been pushing the concept of social bookmarking as a business tool for the past 18 months. Connectbeam integrates social bookmarking and social networking with search, says the blogger, who provides a detailed description of how it works. More importantly, Connectbeam's product includes specific workflows, security settings, rules and permissions, and other safeguards for the enterprise.
