Of it's word processing on steroids, or forums, or group wikis... The
fact that it is all these things in one fairly simple to use interface

I can't sell my luddite co-workers on the idea of a blog, or a wiki,
but this is more obviously approachable. For more normal web users,
there are obviously a lot of advanced uses as well.
