nGenera: Collaboration for the Enterprise
Seemingly creating a class of software not previously served directly, nGenera is a company that I suggest keeping an eye on. Not talking about their executive team who's chalked full of the dream team of successful entrepreneurs and software vets. I'm talking about the idea of integrating and valuing collaboration in the Enterprise. This seems to be really a cool idea at start-ups, but one which gets hardly a raised eyebrow, and definitely not a standardized application that will serve the needs of multiple business segments, groups, teams, etc. One app? That's a bold business. I'm not even talking about how they encourage exposing this to their customers' customers and partners. That one is where I literally get chills - both from the risk and the excitement of the possibility to build true loyalty and instantly deliver value to our customers woven into a fabric of transparency created from deliberately using a platform designed specifically for collaboration.
Everyone working together. Simple, Enterprise Software. I might vomit, this is so cool.
I bet they get bought in less than 12 months for a significant valuation.

James, thank you for the kind words about nGenera and the exciting reflections on enterprise collaboration! You're right: what was once relegated to start-ups not even two years ago is now becoming apparent to all enterprises--collaboration, and the power of facilitating discussion and capturing tribal knowledge.
For me, it's exciting that enterprises are finally thinking outside of the email inbox. We've been "drinking our own champagne," of course, and using SPACES for all sorts of projects and purposes. It's liberating to have less inbox clutter and see everything I need in one organized spot. That, in itself, is exciting enough to me that I might want to... "vomit," as you say. :)
