We're in the process of publishing the new corporate website today. While our web needs are actually quite simple, the site includes some nice features. As we're involved in GeoCMS development, one such feature is the active team map:

The OpenStreetMap gets automatically updated as we move around. This doesn't however mean that we've GPS collared our employees, but instead that we're using the Plazes service to coordinate our comings and goings. Everybody runs a Plazer on either the Mac desktop or an Internet Tablet, and the position changes whenever we connect to a wireless network.

Other details on the site include showing the Skype availability status of everybody, and providing a "Planet Nemein" view of blogs by team members.

This all was reasonably simple to accomplish using a stock Midgard setup.
