Injoos recently got named as part of the “Top 25 Most Promising Internet Companies“. Would like to congratulate Injoosers for making this happen. Striking the right balance between innovation and utility for any product is a great challenge. This is a recognition of the Injoos team being able to walk the talk.

2009 was a great year for Injoos.

- There was a increased adoption for new ways to collaborate online and the usage of email took a steep decline.

- We added whole host of features like “Networks” and “Micro Blogging” to the Injoos platform making it the most comprehensive Social Intranet in the Cloud.

Going forward we see a clear adoption of the Cloud paradigm and SAAS business models in businesses which is both, cost effective and increases productivity. Together they have the right potent to open up the untapped talent and energy in any organization.

We are pleased to bring you a powerful and cool new feature ‘Flash‘, a microblog that allows you to broadcast micro posts and messages to your network either to be viewed by any one or by a restricted group that can be chosen by the user. We believe this feature is a great value add to the user for it’s immediacy , near real time data and simplicity.

The moment you log in to your network in injoos , you will notice this change with an area carved out for micro posts. Here’s what you can do with the new feature “Microblog – Flash”

• Flash  messages to all the network users, get quick responses to short questions. A two way communication lets you post replies and automatically bring replies of the posts to attention resulting in collaborative conversations
• Post the Flash messages as news , discussions or events and share with groups or subgroups from a single place without having to switch between network, group or subgroups.
• Share variety of things, fun and frivolous to serious stuff as videos, photos, events etc with your network users
• Microblog at all levels – Flash your information to your Network, Group and subgroup
• Flash allows you to reply , comment, share, rate and take other actions directly on the activity feeds from your groups, directly from the microblog interface.
• Add a filter to your flashes - Create user lists of people you want to follow and filter the content by user lists.

Additional features included in this release 5.0 :

Notifications and alerts - with clear call to action is now displayed on the right side of notification bar . An Action center has also been added to the My Cabinet section of the product which can be used to access all the pending notifications.

People directory – Gives a view of  people in your network. User List section of the people directory allows any user to create lists of users he/she wants to follow. The user lists can be used to filter the activity feeds content.

Happy Flashing!!!

Most of the micro blogging apps released in the recent times like Yammer and Co-tweet are essentially a clone of Twitter which supports closed group of business users. We found that what would be more useful is to have the micro blogging tool essentially as part of the complete Social Intranet for an organization. So you could share short snippets of information as News, Event or discussion with your colleagues with one single simple interface. Also now it becomes much easier for you to track and respond to all the happenings in your team or organizations. Get ready for Injoos Flash being released in the next 5 days.
