TechCrunch UK has a blog post up about Collaboration Web Apps that will help you beat the econonmy-related tightening purse strings of the corporate world. It’s a good post with a lot of good tools but it made me realize that we should be louder externally about how Adobe is helping with collaboration.

Of course we’ve got Connect Pro and even Connect Now, which gives you a free meeting room you can use and includes text chat, video chat, and screen sharing. But what’s better than that? Being able to add collaboration components to your own applications. That’s where CoCoMo is going to come in. You can check out more at the Collaborative Methods blog. We’re exposing almost all of the functionality from Connect Now into components that you can use inside of your own Flex applications. Even better, CoCoMo will provide all the hooks you need to add a real-time collaborative element to your application. There’s a recording available from a meeting with the CoCoMo team if you’re interested in more info.
