Social Intelligence News & Articles

If social media monitoring is good enough for prospective employers, it’s good enough for the United States Government.  Where as employers may track the behaviors of future employees online, tracking social media for indications that their applicant may be a risk, the Department of Defense has begun a new initiative, which sets to track intelligence across social media.

Haven’t you ever wished some social media users used a little intelligence when posting updates to Facebook or Twitter? You’re not the only one. Now, thanks to Social Intelligence, a Santa Barbara-based startup, companies can conduct social media background checks as way for them to monitor their employees' online activities or screen job seekers' web-based pursuits.

Australia-based iGo2 Group has recently announced a partnership with InsideView, a provider of sales intelligence services. Under the partnership, iGo2 will be part of InsideView's Partner Program as a reseller and master agent. iGo2 will, in turn, resell the service to companies in APAC who intend to utilize InsideView's social intelligence suite.

Inmagic, a provider of knowledge management solutions, recently released a new socialized version of their knowledge repository. The company says the solution was named Social Presto by customers including NASA, Newsweek and the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts. 

But we'll focus less on the name dropping -- although NASA is an impressive client -- and more on the turn we see vendors continuing to take in the direction of social knowledge solutions.
