Since 2002, IBM has had a vibrant internal culture of online collaboration. Many of those early platforms, from BlogCentral to WikiCentral to later Cattail and DogEar, have now become Lotus Connections.
Lotus Connections is now deployed on ibm.com to allow IBMers to collaborate externally with IBM partners, clients, colleagues, and peers.
The Unified Profile will consolidate your IBM profiles and login information into one simple, connected profile that streamlines your passwords, and allows you greater access to IBM tools, features and functions.
