Collaborative research with Memonic Groups
Everything is teamwork today. It starts in school, extends to university and is a commonplace at any workplace, too. You work in groups of three to ten people on a particular subject. Be it your next term paper or the analyst's report of a public company.
You start with a search on your topic. Let's consider this solved, thanks to Bing, Yahoo and Google (BYG). The editing of your paper or report is also swiftly done, once all the research snippets are in a word document. But then your colleague just left for two weeks of holidays, and so did her saved research on her shutdown notebook. Too bad: You simple need to redo all the research.
That's why we recently launched a nifty group functionality. Basically it's all of Memonic plus the ability to jointly open a group to share, discuss, comment, edit, and more any of your clipped items. Johnny Memonic, our greatest fan, just opened a group. Just befriend Johnny and he'll be inviting you to join his group!
Once you are logged into your account you see beneath your Sets the Group section. Click on the "+" sign to open a new group. In the following dialogue you add a little information about the group. And the dashboard automatically reflects the latest add-ons to your group.
Oh, and of course the major part we kept for dessert: Any member of the group may post to this group from wherever and whenever she wants. All the other team members see that changes and can engage in a discussion around the topics you collected next to posting their own items to the shared group. No longer any complicated workarounds!
We would welcome your feedback!
