I like these kind of electronic brainstorming business tools because they fulfil a double purpose. On the one hand, you have the ability to collaborate with various fellow workers who may be situated in the next office or in Timbuktu. However, by allowing groups to brainstorm anonymously from their computers rather than in person another interesting scenario crops up.

This is a technique used by some of many Fortune 500 companies to promote brainstorming ... Read more

There are an awful lot of unfulfilled ideas floating through cyberspace.

I had a great idea to make use of this site but then I thought it might be a bit cruel. Having had a look through it, not that there’s much to look at, I thought I might create a post and challenge the developers to tell me what the point of it is! They describe the app as a platform where organizations and businesses can create online challenges around their brands and increase visibility and customer loyalty. I know good PR and advertising campaigns don’t come cheap but looking at the low level impact this one generates on your senses ... Read more
