Using the Places Web Part

The Places web part is used in SharePoint to allow a user to "Follow" and browse Jive places (spaces, projects, and groups). As you place your mouse over (or hover) each space, project, or group, a Jive popup is shown to provide more details about the respective Jive content. There also an option at the bottom of each popup dialog to "Follow" the space, project, or group. Please see Managing Jive Web Parts for more information on how to add a Places web part to a SharePoint page.
