Task 5, question 2- 2. What type of collaboration tool would you build?

I suggest building a web-based, open-sourced collaboration platform that can be used by employees, customers and business partners as a community platform for all of our users. The platform will be used to build relationships, foster ideas and provide information among all of our stakeholders. We will use it for many purposes, inluding hosting our blog, event management, calendar of events, project management, file sharing and archiving, contact management, an online bulletin board, and for a private microblog for employee communications. We will also use the site to provide marketing materials and training videos to customers.
