It's time to start a new project.

Why not use a blog?

permissions) – no one is left out• Fewer emails to store/search through• Conversational (email-like) format• Date and time stamps• Ability to link to relevant pages &
comments

Once your project is done, what do you do with all of those
documents you were passing back & forth?
• Store them on a shared drive? • Add links to them on your
intranet? • Store them in your email? • Print them out?
Why not try a wiki?
