Announcing Angora Public Beta – Online Collaboration

For about the last 10 months I've been working on a new web-based collaboration platform from Rabbitsoft, codenamed Angora.

Angora provides online workspaces where you can collaborate with other people to create and share content, manage tasks and organise events.

Features include:

  • Wiki
  • Task management
  • Event management
  • File sharing & viewing
  • Microblogging
  • Search
  • Permissions
  • Commenting
  • Tagging
  • Versioning

With Angora you can create a workspace for a project or shared area of interest and invite people to join you online. You can then collaboritively author and track versions of online pages which you can publish to the web. You can assign tasks to people and invite them to events. You can keep up to date with your friends or colleagues by posting regular status updates and you can search entire workspaces including the contents of files. You also get a personal dashboard where you can keep track of all of your workspaces from one place, with a unified activity feed and a list of your upcoming events and tasks.

We've recently launched a public beta of the product at angora.rabbitsoft.com which I'd encourage you to try out. We'd love to hear your feedback and you can report any problems, comments or suggestions using a big blue "Feedback" button at the top of the screen.

Angora is an enterprise class web application built on J2EE, the Spring Framework and Jackrabbit content repository. We're committed to supporting open standards so that you can easily integrate it with your existing systems, we already support RSS, iCalendar and JSR-283.

I'd also personally love to know whether you're finding Angora useful so please, get in touch.
