Tibco Launches tibbr: Social Computing For The Enterprise
Vivek Ranadivé, (above) CEO of Tibco Software today launched tibbr, described as a social computing tool for the enterprise. 
It uses a similar approach to Facebook and Twitter that allows staff to “follow” each other and subscribe to specific subjects within the corporation.
The tibbr software is available as a cloud-based service or in-house for $12 per user per month.
A key feature is that tibbr allows users to “follow” a specific subject rather than having to follow a person and see everything that they publish.
“I like to follow Shaq on Twitter but I’m not interested in what Shaq had for lunch. But I am interested in what he has to say about basketball games,” said Vivek Ranadivé, founder and CEO of Tibco.
Tibco said it has filed for patent protection around this idea of subscribing to subjects rather than people.
