This past Wednesday evening, Riverock Technologies' fearless cofounders, Steve Kickert and Denis Ahearn, took to the stage at Minnesota's own quarterly Barcamp event to demo the OnePlace™ app in the strictly proscribed time of seven minutes. And deliver it well they did—one of ten presentations to a standing-room-only, information-hungry crowd of developers, founders, VCs and other investors, marketing folks, local media, and tech bloggers, all jam-packed into the theater at Intermedia Arts in Uptown Minneapolis. It was one high-energy event focused on technology innovation in MInnesota, in the form of ten hand-picked, highly promising startups.

Steve and Denis gave a great overview of the three pillars of OnePlace™:

• team collaboration
• project management
• and personal productivity

And they presented publicly for the first time the new "TeamCentral" feature, which has social-media functions that include "TeamPulse," as announced in this news release just a day before the event. They also let the cat out of the bag about two additional, brand-new features of TeamCentral. One, called "TeamSchedule," is a view into the upcoming work for your team, letting you know what things your teammates have planned. The other, "TeamActivities," lets you see the trail of work your teammates leave as they work throughout the day. You can use these features right now if you have a paid OnePlace™ account. If you haven't yet upgraded from your free or free-trial account, the TeamCentral feature is a great reason to upgrade now!
