Google Sidewiki

We’re all tweeting and posting about Google Sidewiki today, thanks to Jane. (No sarcasm intended… thank you, Jane!)

If you haven’t seen it in action yet:

I always feel like the Joker whenever Google announces something new… Where do they get those wonderful toys?? But I then I remember they’re mostly free for me to use, for good or evil, as I see fit.

In the case of Sidewiki, I could see using this to enhance a company’s intranet/process documentation. I know of a couple departments that are considering moving to a wiki, replacing RoboHelp or another EPSS. Sidewiki would eliminate the need to rebuild the system… but I’m thinking it’s not going to work on some/most intranets, due to either technical or formal limitations.

Did any other uses of this app spring to mind when you saw it?
