37 Signals is launching their latest project - Backpack - on Tuesday. Whilst the main site doesn't seem to have gone live yet a number of previews of this new program have been written which you should check out.

I been given a bit of an inside look at it by three readers of ProBlogger in the past 24 hours and I must say that I'm really impressed by it and am looking forward to trying it out for myself.

In short Backpack is a web based way of organizing your information that lets you organize it as you like. It lets you keep some private and allows you to share other bits of it. You can access it via email or via the web. It has blog-like characteristics but also reminds me of a wiki - dynamic stuff, yet simple.

I won't explain it as well the people behind it so check out this Backpack Preview for the inside word. As I say - I don't yet have my own Backpack but from what I've snuck a look at through others free tries it looks pretty nice.

Also check out business logs mini preview of BackPack.

Update: Backpack is now live.
