null is not an object

We have recently been working hard on a new “Web 2.0 social networking” application and are finally ready to release the beta to the world.

Say hello to Jiibe.

The problem that Jiibe is trying to address - as if being a social networking application wasn’t enough - is to help people think about the culture at their place of work and how well that culture jives with what they would find ideal. By answering a few quick questions about their workplace culture the user creates their own personal Jiibe and at the same time contributes to the overall Jiibe culture signature for the company they are currently working at. It is a great way for people to figure out what they like and don’t like about their company culture and also to help them find companies that have a culture they would mesh well with.

One of the other cool features is that people can ask questions to everyone at a company which can generate discussions around certain topics at a company. If only Joe had Jiibe to ask people who actually worked at EA what it was actually like to work there!

I would definitely encourage people to go and check out Jiibe and answer some questions for their current and / or former employers to help people make more informed decisions about where they want to work. As with any Web 2.0 application Jiibe is currently in Beta so things will still be changing as we work more on the application and add features that users demand.
