CubeTree, the collaboration suite built on an enterprise social networking platform, has launched a new group chat feature today that should allow its customers to communicate more efficiently with chat room functionality.
CEO and Co-Founder Carlin Wiegner says that there are also more APIs coming to CubeTree, including some that are related to the new live chat feature. CubeTree also has applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch, Blackberry, Adobe AIR and Jabber support. Group chats can be enabled so numerous users can communicate with each other at once. After chats are completed, they are archived for later viewing, which you can also search through by keyword.
Just earlier this week, Socialcast launched its own brand new set of developer API’s to help Socialcast users better communicate with each other.
CubeTree was founded in 2008 and is backed by Mitch Kapor and Trinity Ventures.
cool concept
Cubetree is making waves with its new concepts http://AppUseful.com
Cubetree allows organizations to trial risk/cost free up to 10Mb a user. I’ve seen it begin to increase organizational effectiveness through more frequent and meaningful communication.
Group colloboration is still a surprisingly unsolved problem; hopefully someone gets it eventually.
Great to see more acknowledgement of the potential for enterprise group chat, a simple but very powerful collaboration tool.

Wow, it’s a brand new market to me..
The potential benefit is huge, but we’ll have to see how soon (or not) large organizations adopt it – they can be very change resistant in the use of novel technology… let’s hope for the best!
