IBM announced today that Lotus Connections 2.5 will ship on August 28th, yep just 10 days from now!. Beta 2 of Connections 2.5 is running in the Lotus Greenhouse now, allowing you to check out all of the enhancements and new features before it even ships.
Some of the changes in 2.5 include
Addition of File Sharing
Addition of Wikis
Dogear is renamed 'Bookmarks'
Communities are enhanced to allow the inclusion of an Activity, Wiki, or Blog as part of a Community
Homepage contains a new feed to make it easier to keep up with activity in your network, or discover new people and content
and one of my favorites in Profiles - Micro-blogging and the ability to share messages on your Profile or write on others profiles.
On the back end of Connections 2.5 the install gets a little easier, especially if you are working in a clustered environment. More on that in the coming days.
IBM Lotus Connections 2.5 develops professional communities and networks of colleagues
