WebApp Consulting

Google has acquired JotSpot, a privately held company pioneering do-it-yourself web application publishing. Such web applications where everyone can create, update, and uppend pages with new information without knowing HTML are called WIKIs. While you can find many free WIKIs in the Internet, JotSpot could offer very nice features that gone beyond traditional WIKI featureset. Apparently Google was working in the same direction with its Google Page Creator and Google Docs & Spreadsheets projects, so the acqusition was natural. The details of the new services that Google is going to offer are still unknown, but JotSpot says that paying customers will not be charged any more, while new customers cannot register yet.

Looking for ways to create web sites quickly or to boost projects collaboration business people start to pay attention to WIKIs. As Business Week explains WIKIs sometimes are more efficient than common collaboration tools such as e-mail.
