Communote
Communote is a Java- based free communication solution for project and team-oriented companies. The microblogging tool was released in December 2008. The difference to public microblogging services such as B. Twitter is that Communote focuses on internal use in companies. Similar to Twitter, users can share messages about their current activities with their colleagues.
In June 2016 the source code of Communote was published freely on GitHub ( Apache License , Version 2.0).
