Facilitating Collaboration: Web Technologies That Work

Wednesday, August 16, 10:45-11:30 AM

by Ryan Freitas

Web technologies-in various stages of adoption-are having tremendous impact on the way we all communicate and collaborate online. This seminar will provide an overview for how online collaboration has evolved in the presence of wikis, syndication and blogs. We'll take a look at the impact on how teams work together to use these tools internally, and how they can be utilized to communicate effectively with audiences worldwide. Finally, we'll survey the horizon for the next generation of collaboration technologies, and attempt to auger what they might mean for all of us.
