I think this is interesting. Though I wonder what you are really getting besides the IBM brand name. The "rules" have not really been written yet so I wonder if this is way for IBM to get into the fray like Microsoft and Google have done.

Projjex.com is a great new site that does a fabulous job of collaboration. It’s completely browser-based, really easy to use, and has a free version. Cool videos too - I love it!
