Don;t forget Broadband Mechanics and our PeopleAggregator platform! Its a ‘MySpace-in-a-Box’ solution.
And I’ve posted a few ideas on what corproate social networking can be over at my blog.
Enjoy

Connectbeam provides social software to the enterprise, build around social bookmarking and social networking.
I would be very interested in hearing your feedback.

We have designed Connectbeam with a laser focus on enterprise requirements — integration w/ search and directory services, api suite, etc. — and found that this is how they want to see the space grow too.

I have some skepticism about Lotus Connections, as it is a play to own the corporate desktop, which is not a likely event. At the same time, IBM will certainly know how to compete, and indeed they do attest to the reality of the market by moving into it.

Disclosure: I’m part of the Connectbeam team; all the same, Ross (and you too blog reader), I’d love for you to take a look at what we are doing. I think you will be interested.
