Startup: Portland-based Opal Labs takes brainstorming to next level

No business wants to miss out on the next big idea, and yet there are all kinds of ways for that to happen.

An employee with a mind-boggling moneymaker, for example, may be too shy to present it. Or just not have the opportunity or platform to make it known.

Portland-based Opal Labs http://www.workwithopal.com/ wants to remedy that with Opal Brainstorm, a tool meant to encourage new ideas, group problem-solving and collaboration anyplace within an organization. The Web application combines the look and feel of Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and other sites.
