CollectiveX

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CollectiveX is a group engagement network that provides members of a group with a platform for communication and networking. CollectiveX is a closed network, unlike LinkedIn, since there is no way to publicly browse groups or individual member profiles. Any information shared is only available to peers within that group.

[edit] Technology

CollectiveX was built using open source technologies including Ruby on Rails, MySQL, and Mac OS X.

[edit] Contributions

CollectiveX has sponsored and released a Ruby on Rails plugin called Marshmallow that allows development teams to tie development and deployment processes into a Campfire chat room built by 37signals. This plugin can be used to keep all members of a distributed team informed of events such as Subversion commits, deployments, exceptions in production, and trouble ticket creation and/or modification.
