4 Reasons to Have a Team Website

On May 10, 2010, in Productivity, by Eric

So you have too much time on your hands? Feel like learning about webservers, php, mysql and installing wordpress? Here’s a great project for you. Get ready to hyper-link (pun intended) your team.

1) Improved Communication
- shared place for team communications
- everyone get material at the same time
anyone can contribute important information to everyone else

2) Line-of-site to Important Information
- team members may have wonderful ideas
- there is a shared skill set amongst employees
- a great idea motivates another member to apply similar methods on another project
- reduces people working on redundant projects

3) Shared Calendar of Events
- outlook is a great tool but not socially minded
- a google calendar widget with team access is a great option
- anyone can contribute
- aligns deliverables

4) Reference Material
- team document repository
- always have the latest version at your finger tips
- removes hive knowledge

If this is your kick at something like this, I highly recommended a fully supported solution through a hosting provider, using an existing system like tumblr or posterous, or Wordpress on a stick
