QUBE in 3D: a new dimension for social media

QUBE is now officially enterprise social media!  This month the newest version of QUBE will give you the powers of a tractor beam ... or at least a huge magnet!  You can download it from the QUBE website at http://QUBE.cc

By clicking on the "Come Here" button, you will find your colleagues will be powerless to resist your call. QUBE will fire up, create a qubot for them, and drag it round to whichever qubicle you happen to be in.

We're hoping that this will improve our ability to deliver real time coaching on QUBE, and also to make it much easier for busy (disorganised?) leaders and managers to meet up with each other to learn collaboratively.

We've also added most of the changes you asked for, plus some fun things, in the latest version, such as 'clever' sizing sticky notes, and a quick shortcut to the Lobby so you can hang out there or easily switch organisations.

Here's a list of the changes you asked for:

Welcome Message

The welcome message can be cleared in a simpler way by selecting 'Clear welcome message' from the display drop down menu. You can restart the welcome message at any time by right clicking the documents icon (in the tray at the bottom-left) to return to the welcome panel.

Managing Hopes & Fears, and Brainstorms by Post-it

Hovering over a Post-it no longer shows who wrote it. (Remember how the little yellow messages used to get in the way?) You need to click on the Post-it to show the original author. However, if you hold down the Control key, it will revert to the previous mouseover  behaviour.

Using Slates

Drag-and-drop posters on slates are automatically resized and Post-its placed on these posters are also sized to fit.

Working on WorkPads

WorkPad posters adjust to the size of the background when drag and dropped.  Posters will resize themselves relative to the background (for example, if you are placing a WorkPad on a slate).
    Also WorkPad posters can set the size of Post-its – use the right-click "properties" window.

    Make it easy for people to find the WorkPad by listing it in the Places Menu (check the WorkPad name is meaningful and not duplicated).
