Traditional approach is to support asynchronous collaboration
  • Electronic mail, including mailing lists
  • Threaded discussion groups
  • Interface to document management systems
  • Multimedia mail extensions
  • Group calendar and scheduling
Asynchronous process is self-documenting
Tremendously successful model
  • Did not supplant phone though...
