Keeping Up:
Sites to Consider Watching

The May 1, 2001, issue of CIO Magazine [http://www.cio.com] features two articles worth clicking to: "One Is Not Enough: Corporate portal strategy is shifting from all-in-one enterprise portals to smaller, multiple portals," by Jon Surmacz [http://www.cio.com/metrics/] and "The Knowledge Crunch," by Esther Shein, featuring Frito-Lay's case study [http://www.cio.com/archive/050101/crunch.html], and a mini-article, "The Skinny on KM Portals" [http://www.cio.com/archive/050101/crunch_sidebar2.html].

"Intranets Save Time—But for Whom?" Jakob Nielsen, noted Web usability guru, talks about how companies are losing millions of dollars because of poor usability [http://www.business2.com/technology/2001/04/intranet.htm].

Once again, Inmagic, Inc. has sponsored a valuable white paper, free for the click at http://www.inmagic.com/howard/600.Written by well-known intranet consultant Howard McQueen, "Maximizing the Power of Your Intranet: Procurement, Content Management, e-Communications" is described as providing "a clear, concise explanation on how you can add core values to your intranet by maximizing the new generation of e-information available...and how to implement Howard's flexible and robust seven-layer intranet model."

"Portals at Forefront of Intranet Evolution" by Paul Krill, Infoworld.com, and available at ITWorldCanada.com by IDG Canada. By bringing together the best of ComputerWorld, CIO.com, NetworkWorld, and other IT publications, it's definitely worth bookmarking and going directly to the intranets/extranets section, http://itworld.ca/portals/index.cfm?Publication=IntranetsExtranets&&Section=main.
