Elguji has been witnessing company after company innovating with our products and, in particular IdeaJam. We have put together a series of case studies that are available on our web site. The first one we want to share with you is the Lotus Knows IdeaJam that took place in August 2009. Putting together public case studies is also a requirement for IBM Business Partners participating in the Business Partner Advisory Council which Elguji is a member of.

Joey Bernal's book "Web 2.0 and Social Networking for the Enterprise: Guidelines and Examples for Implementation and Management Within Your Organization" from IBM Press is out and covers all things Web 2.0 and Social Netowrking from Lotus and includes Elguji's IdeaJam idea and innovation management software. A quick review of the book reveals that IdeaJam is one of the only third party applications included. Here is the description of the book from Amazon.com:

This book provides hands-on, start-to-finish guidance for business and IT decision-makers who want to drive value from Web 2.0 and social networking technologies. IBM expert Joey Bernal systematically identifies business functions and innovations these technologies can enhance and presents best-practice patterns for using them in both internal- and external-facing applications. Drawing on the immense experience of IBM and its customers, Bernal addresses both the business and technical issues enterprises must manage to succeed. He offers insights and case studies covering multiple technologies, including AJAX, REST, Atom/RSS, enterprise taxonomies, tagging, folksonomies, portals, mashups, blogs, wikis, and more. He also presents practical guidance for building robust, secure, collaborative applications by using applications and services from multiple sources with powerful tools such as WebSphere® Portal, Lotus® Connections, and IBM Mashup Center.

IdeaJam is covered on pages 267-269.

One of our Canadian customers in the financial services industry works with a web design and communications agency in Canada called iStudio. This agency is responsible for all of their web design work. When this company purchased IdeaJam they needed to customize it to match their corporate branding guidelines as well as the needs of the business unit interested in using IdeaJam.

Using the native out-of-the-box functionality of IdeaJam, iStudio was able to make the customers IdeaJam look exactly the way the customer wanted it to look. Mike from iStudio recently blogged about how they used the language file to add a user agreement plugin to the login panel without touching the underlying Notes/Domino design.

Although IQJam has been officially released today, the public site has been up for people to test and use to get some great content for a couple of months now.

One of our beta testers has sent over a screenshot of some development they've done using our Web Services API which integrates IQJam into MS Powerpoint. It's this sort of flexibility which we think makes IQJam such a powerful tool in the enterprise. Imagine your users being able to query your corporate knowledge base when they're in Word (or Symphony Documents), a simple but genuinely useful addition to their productivity toolkit.



Of course the web services API is the simplest to integrate into desktop applications. But we also offer the JSON API which would be easier to add on to your web applications. Development options are what it's all about.
