Here's one context where I'll stick to email. I support people in our internal CoPs and I get lots of support type emails...and often I send back an email with 2 or 3 instructional screenshots...it takes me 2 secs to do the screenshots and then I simply paste them in the email message I do create FAQ's, so if the email I receive is about a common thing I quickly reply with a link, but most of the time the email will be very contextual. Another thing is that I need to be able to sort my sent and inbox (in activity streams terms that is my stuff and notifications) by person and date...I do this daily in Outlook to find past emails. I've said this many times, I think soon the notification stream will take the spotlight, as this most resembles the inbox...and with the maturity of enterprise social moving from just updates and questions to doing work I think this will be inevitable. BTW - I've been discussing with your colleague Rich Blank over here http://delimiter.com.au/2012/05/03/local-govt-groups-abandon-yammer-trials/ Appreciate your comment on this post, they are rare these days! Thx for dropping by Jenay.

While there's no way to bullet format something, you can: enter line breaks, use dashes to distinguish your bullet points, and attach images to posts. Essentially, NewsGator would give you the same functionality at Google+. And, by posting into NewsGator's transparent Activity Stream, anyone else following you will be able to see your post and contribute... so someone that wasn't explicitly @targeted could join the conversation. Less email, more sharing! Lastly, NewsGator does have a character limit of 1876, but that should be enough to get your three paragraphs into the stream.

Everyday there are times when we need to put our knowledge into a forum and have it easily accessed to save time and get the customer back up and running as soon as possible if possible. Would you happen to have any examples I could see of your blog/wiki solution?

We don't have a lot of studies about interconnections on politics and Internet in Australia. Seriously, I saw even works about <a href="http://www.writers.ph" rel="nofollow">online jobs in the philippines</a>, but nothing about Australian bloggers. This is interesting.
