The New Frontier - join IBM.com's social communities! At Pulse, IBM also kicked off the beginnings of three other new communities with the same capabilities where the community can share questions, news, standards, and best practices and asks questions of IBM, Business Partners, and the larger community.

• Service management community: More of a focus on solutions that work across multiple IBM and Business Partner solutions, the Service Management field, and analyst reports.
• Tivoli community: More of a focus on Tivoli products and Tivoli-identified community stakeholders such as User Groups, Business Partners, IBM Tivoli teams
• Tivoli research volunteers group: A group where the community agrees to receive invitations to participate in research opportunities on prototypes for new Tivoli product designs, improving messaging, communications, and more.

All these IBM communities can be found here
