Build Your Own Workplace to Go
Posted November 27th, 2007 (2:08pm) by Anne Zelenka

Today 19Marketplace announced its Workplace2go offering, a hosted set of business applications available on a pay-as-you-go basis. The offering includes WebEx Web Office, WebEx Web Conferencing, Microsoft Exchange Email, Blackberry Mobile Service, and more. As I wrote on GigaOM, this may be just the thing for the small business owner who doesn’t want to put together and troubleshoot his or her own (likely cheaper) alternative from Web 2.0 tools.

But what if you do want to build your own workplace to go? What applications would it include? Here’s what I’d use:

* Google Apps for Your Domain for email, calendar, chat, and a web-based office suite
* Mobile email with the Gmail mobile client
* Mozy for backup
* Yugma for web conferencing
* Skype for conference calls
* FreshBooks for invoicing

What tools would make up your “workplace to go”?

So what tools are you using? Any other thoughts?
