Hello!
Welcome to the JotSpot blog. We’ve been doing the blog thing for a while as individuals (see the links on the side for our personal blogs), but this will be a consolidated home for JotSpot-related news.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Just a general “congratulations” to the people that have created Jotspot.
It is my first experience using this type of applicaction.
It has been a while since I have mentally been involved with a concept that keeps me up late at night, hammering away in fascination with potential.
The web is defining it’s role in the world every day as more people come to it for information
There are pivotol moments to everything in life.
In the life of the web I see the introduction of “wiki’s” as one of these moments.
In one fell swoop the former one way internet becomes a two way street.
Certainly wiki’s have business applications but I think their most promising influence will be social in nature.
This is a good thing because the earths inhabitants keep on stepping into various unsavory situations.
Communication equals hope. The ability for the common person to have diolouge with others, even those with opposing views is a great opportunity for us all.
The greatest applications for wiki’s have yet to be discovered.
Thank you for taking these initial steps with your company.
I feel certain success in many forms awaits you.
best regards
Aloha

As I understand it, a wiki must reside on someone elses host service. What I need is a wiki type program I can run on my internal engieering server and have all the capabilities it provides in your jotspot. Many companies are reluctant to set up a wiki or Jotspot on your server for two main reasons; 1 is that it is not secure enough, and 2 if you end your business before we do ours, we loose the whole thing, unless there is a way to have your program reside on our computers internally. What do you say about this comment?

Hi Tom,
We are planning to offer a JotSpot appliance very soon in addition to our hosted service offering. In a previous post we stressed the fact that we have a strong commitment to allowing users to easily move data both in and out of their JotSpot accounts, whether it be a hosted account or otherwise. You never have to fear losing your data (or having it held hostage), because at any time you have the freedom to back up the entire contents of your JotSpot wiki to your hard drive as a zip file of nicely formatted XML (including all attachments).
