The challenge of adopting multitudes of innovative 2.0 and mobile applications is that they may make you more efficient as an individual but scaling use to multiple people can be very challenging. An example might be Tungle, the slick lightweight scheduling software that works across browser and iphone.

Like many 2.0 offerings, for scheduling small groups Tungle is a wonderous thing. you can daisy chain Tungle so it speaks to your Microsoft Outlook, Google calendar, Facebook, LinkedIn, Xing, Ning, Twitter, iphone & ical, and now as a beta with the venerable Lotus Notes.Identity management. This is no reflection on Tungle individually, but the time spent logging in and out of multiple applications can easily eat the time saved using them.

Identity - your great raft of usernames and passwords for different applications - are the bridge toll traffic jam of productivity. For a group of collaborators, if some users have access to a system or groups within a system but others don’t the time suck of getting everyone organized can be enormously costly.:courtesy:zdnet:
