content management systems, shared network folders etc. Each of those
sources are stovepipes of information; themselves poorly organized.
The result? An information maze with a myriad of
barriers and paths to navigate.

Tag and Connect™ lets you cut through the information
clutter. This easy-to-use tool allows you to link and
organize information, in any format, across document and e-mail folders and
intranet and Web portals.
Imagine you’re researching a major purchase…an information-intensive
process if there ever was one. Tag and Connect™ allows you to organize and
retrieve your product research; product reviews; e-mails from vendors
and co-workers; related agreements, analysis
and more.
Having all your information connected and accessible
saves time and aggravation and leads to better decision making by letting
you directly compare, contrast and critique information wherever it resides.
The connections you make
with Tag and connect™
are stored in a Found Engine™
where they are shared with others, leveraging the value of your effort
for all users. As other users cross your path, Tag and Connect™ is
working in the background to reveal the paths you created. Likewise, you
will be alerted to connections created by other users, magnifying the value
of the research and knowledge of all contributors.
Tag and Connect™ is simple to use, and it integrates
seamlessly with Microsoft® Office applications. You can continue to create,
file, edit and process documents exactly as you do now.
Tag and Connect™ gives you power and flexibility to
organize the information you use every day. Stop duplicating file searches
through your network the Web and file systems. Remember what
you have and what you’ve found by tagging and connecting it where you need
it.
