I while back I contributed a post to the messiness of email collaboration meme, Michael Sampson distilled the meme into 11 issues. I further responded with a more focused post on using email for document collaboration.
Anyway Michael has now taken us…

I think it is easier than sending emails to everyone and getting a thread of returned emails and after 4 such reply to all emails, everyone’s lost on the venue, time and who’s going list. There is another such site by Grouptivity. Maybe I can try using it and see how the response is for my next attempt at organising an event. [...]

We’re a little humble and not sure people want to know about us.

I didn’t initially read the end of this blog post where Judi mentions the same thing about lack of information on the founders. My apologies.

Despite this, i think that they are attempting to attack a need, but the execution needs to be streamlined a little bit.

Michael, I think there is more there than just planning meetings and would be happy to speak to you to give you an overview of where we are and what else we have planned.

Patrick, I think the company you are referring to was Firedrop, then Zaplet, who subsequently were acquired by Metricstream.

An interesting component of that service was that the original email stayed in your inbox, and was changed to “unread” after the details changed. Say you’re planning a dinner out with friends. A friend receives the email and clicks to view it, and its marked as read. The first friend replies within the email and goes onto other things. A second friend sees the email after the first has replied, and that person’s response (survey and/or text), and replies as well. The first friend comes back to their inbox, and the message is again marked as unread, and has been updated with the second friend’s response.

It was an extremely well implemented product, but never seemed to get off the ground. I wish I could remember the name.

The implementation needs work. Its strength is that you can build the survey right into the email and you have all your answers in one place without the chatter. They have to work out the bugs to make it really usable.

Looks like a horrific process unless I’m missing something.
