Twitter is hot right ? But I haven't used it yet.

Besides being able to keep people busy by constantly checking out on your latest status, I have long ago thought about the possibility of using Twitter or micro-blogging services to help with managing some software development collaboration challenges such as issues management, new feature requests and etc. It is possible.

SocialText Microblogging Appliance is just about having the same kind of idea. It is a Microblogging software for private usage.

The main thing of using SocialText over other microblogging services is for information security where confidentiality is of a high concern.

It also offers APIs for integration with other software as well as specialized hardware. It is created for corporate.
