Evernote just announced business accounts, so companies can populate all of their employees Evernote accounts with special notebooks of content. Seems like a really easy way to manage a corporate intranet. But I'm also wondering if there's a way to use this as a back-end platform for any internal social media content management, like what we've discussed in the past for clients like Russell Insurance who need to share content across departments, business divisions, countries, etc.

Love the idea of using Evernote as a corporate intranet - primarily because of the ease of access. And, you can set an RSS-> evernote feed, right? If so, we don't even have to recreate anything from our current orangepages

I wonder if we could do a test run for our internal social + content management?

I like the idea of using software to build a social extranet for our clients. Does this post also indicate the demise of you for Yammer?

Yammer still makes sense to me as the perfect solution for simple news sharing + team communications, but at some point we can't force adoption.

Branch as a focused way of tapping specific individuals to talk about a specific topic seems like a great utility.

Evernote as an intranet seems great because it's already on your computer, easy to flip through & digest, faster than any online repository (but more expensive, I assume).

Evernote for the win?

Thanks for the add! I just wrapped up a branch that I think is relevant: branch.com

Are there other uses of Evernote Business we should consider? How else might it help for content creation & sharing within ours or other organizations?

Are there other uncommon platforms, or unexpected platforms, that could solve the internal/enterprise content creation / sharing / management challenge?

Can Evernote be used to replace Google docs? Namely, if your company doesn't have a paid Google apps account, is it a cheaper hack to create an online shared document repository?

To me Google docs and Evernote are perfect partners. Google docs lets you share and collaborate on a single document, while Evernote works better for collecting groups of notes and content. Evernote has a really tough time with sync'ing when two people try to work in the same note at the same time (where Google docs excels). But Evernote's shared collections is great for research & brainstorming.

So per your comment -- I'd hate to have to choose :)
