Cisco Unveils Social Networking Platform
Thursday, January 8th, 2009Cisco Systems is kicking off the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show by announcing Eos, a platform for creating social networks. The idea is to allow media companies to create, manage and grow their own communities by providing tools to make building social networking sites easy. According to CNet, Cisco is going after big media companies here (think Ning for large corporations). The technology comes from Five Across, a social networking software startup Cisco bought last year.
