Very often, the game changer is not recognised until the game has changed. This is the case because a game changing piece of technology is invariably a fluke, it is a technology solution that just happens to find a problem that people didn’t really know they had. |

Written by Peter Weare

Sharepoint is steadily becoming the defacto standard collaboration tool in most organisations. And why not?
