Further to the case study we recently published demonstrating how BUPA are using social bookmarking to facilitate networking across their organisation, we just posted another that outlines how a web development company are using it to share intelligence across continents.
Whilst Cogenz shares an investor with the subject of our second case study, iConcertina, there were […]

Thanks to our friends at BUPA, we just published a case study outlining how they are using social bookmarking to facilitate networking across their organisation.
BUPA was one of our first corporate beta sites so have been with us through a couple of versions, trialling Cogenz with 50 of their head office users to create a […]

Keely Flint from BUPA has kindly contributed this blog post:
As Lead Information Architect at BUPA, I thought it might be useful to give you a quick summary of the presentation I gave at the Blogs and Social Media Conference 2.0 yesterday, where I talked about our experiences trialling Cogenz.
BUPA have been trialling the Cogenz […]

What do Google, Socialtext, Salesforce.com and Basecamp have in common with Cogenz? Well, BNET tells us:

Using Web 2.0 technology to disseminate healthcare information will come under discussion at the Blogs and Social Media Forum next month, with BUPA lead […]

When we presented at Under the Radar, we introduced Cogenz as del.icio.us for the […]

ConnectBeam’s CEO, Puneet Gupta, laments the omission of an enterprise bookmarking application from the hastily-assembled SuiteTwo. Based on the conversations I have had with our corporate beta sites, I agree with him that a full suite may be too much to swallow.
However, following the launch on 7 November, I sent an email to Arvind Sodhani […]

Michael Totty puts enterprise bookmarking on the corporate map with his special report, Information found - and shared, in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal.
Cogenz and Connectbeam are mentioned as two startups working in this area, as well as the more established vendors, IBM, SAP and BEA Systems (although I think only IBM has something available).
