Socialtext Signals makes it easy for you to share information and participate in conversations with your colleagues. Below are three of the new Socialtext 4.1 enhancements that you’ll want to start using right away.

Conversation Threading

Signals now groups all responses below the original topic, making it easy for you to follow the entire discussion.

Link To A Signal

Since a great deal of valuable corporate knowledge is now being shared inside Signals, it is important that you be able to reference past conversations. To facilitate this, each Signal now has a permanent address that displays the message on a web page in context with the discussion it was part of.

Monitor Important Information

Finally, there is a new way you can follow the stream of information in Signals. You can already use a web browser, the Socialtext Desktop client, and your mobile device, and now you have an additional method called “popout streams.” A popout stream allows you to open a separate browser window (or multiple), so you can continue using your main browser window for doing other work. Popout streams allow you to filter the information to display the messages that are most important to you.

We know that some of the greatest ideas and insights come from open conversations with your peers. With the latest version of Socialtext you can now easily share information, participate in discussions, and keep up to date with the latest activities all across your organization. We hope that you find Socialtext Signals to be an invaluable business tool. As always, we love to hear stories about how Socialtext is helping your company succeed.
