Corporate Alumni Network

hide

With record layoffs in the 2009 Recession, more former coworkers are turning to each other to get jobs and start new businesses. In less turbulent times, employers would invest hosting in Corporate Alumni Networks for sharing connections, knowledge and expertise. Today, Socialtext is meeting this latent need with a Corporate Social Network offer for the 2009 Recession. Any former employee and HR director of a company that reduced its workforce by 5% or more in the last year can create a hosted Corporate Social Network for free. Please note this offer does not include user support.

If your network can't be found in the directory below, "fill in the application" to create one.

Very Interesting Ross, could you show some screenshots as examples of how it could be done? This will help folks to visualize it, I'm going to bookmark this page.

Jeremiah, do you plan to blog about this, or otherwise use your role at Forrester to publicize Ross' offer?

Socialtext sent links to short videos of their platform. (If you download the free whitepaper on best practices, I suppose the links to these videos will be sent to you too.)
1-minute product overview video
4-minute video of how our social networking works
4-minute video of the personal home page each user gets

There's also the free trial where you can experience it.

Hi Ross,

Cisco Alumni Network is ready to launch. Could please add it to this page as well?

Also, I will be moderating the group so would appreciate if you can enable features for me to send Invite.

Thanks in advance.
