Select your project team from a diverse group and demonstrate your prototype to broad audiences in order to get feedback from as many people as possible. In this way, you will get everyone's needs out in the open where they may be assessed and addressed. The prototype serves as a model for future development, both during this project and beyond. If it can be developed in a way that allows it to be quickly altered to deliver other types of information, then similar information areas can be developed quickly and automatically be consistent with the first area. You must plan for managing information delivery using policies and procedures from the day the Private Web goes live.
Content is delivered from many sources across the organization.
You can have discussion groups, file sharing areas, personal web servers, and other communications vehicles. In terms of empowering the individual, the impacts of these technologies are tremendous. However, without proper information management, this can be a problem. So, develop systems with technology management in mind rather than focusing purely on implementation. You must have support at all levels for the Private Web.
