"Saywire provides a unique and engaging online learning platform in which people can create private, secure communities to collaborate and communicate with one another. Each Saywire community provides its members with a wide set of tools to quickly and easily build their own autonomous communities or "Spaces" as we call them, within the confines of their organization's parent community. These Spaces are great for learning, sharing, working together, or just connecting with other members of a defined organization/business/educational institution. Each Space can have its own member base, blogs, wikis, discussion boards or any combination of over 12 different features or tools depending on the needs of the Space. Sound interesting?
