Tools for Interaction  Asynchronous – – Collaborative Workspaces  Synchronous – Presence – Instant Messaging – Web Conferencing

How These Tools Will Be Used  Presence – “I can see you”  Instant messaging – “Can we talk?”  Web conferencing – “Show it to me now”  Collaborative workspaces – “This is going to require more time and resources”

Challenges Today  No common storage repository – Inability to store unstructured data  No common development environment – Open Standards, Web Services  No common directory structure  Products not yet enterprise standards – IM, web conferencing
