Tune in to the free “Benefits of Microblogging in the Enterprise” webinar tomorrow from Socialtext

Socialtext's "Signals" collaboration platform features team microblogging, a contact list, and a wiki.

Keeping up with your teammates has never been easier thanks to the advent of some free and private team microblogging tools.  One such tool is enterprise wiki pioneer Socialtext’s new “Free 50” offering.

If you’re curious about how to best leverage these tools – or those of competitors Yammer and Socialcast – then you owe it to yourself to tune in to tomorrow’s free webinar.

These are the same folks who brought us the excellent #twitterprise webinar series earlier this year.   Highly recommended.

I have tested Socialtext, Yammer, Socialcast, and Friendfeed for team microblogging purposes and I’m still currently active on two Yammer groups and a few Friendfeed rooms.  They’re all great – just getting a team microblogging platform up and running is a huge benefit.  Shoot me a message on Twitter @dpritchett if you’d like to talk about them further.

Here’s Alan Lepofsky’s overview of tomorrow’s session:

• How Signals can be used for Q&A, status updates, sharing links, providing a back channel during meetings, and other use cases
• How you can access Signals from a browser, your desktop, or from your mobile device
• How Signal’s secure microblogging differs from public tools such as Twitter, or other standalone microblogging only vendors
