ABSTRACT
Computing and communication technologies have provided us with useful and powerful information resources, remote instruments, and tools for interacting with each other. These possibilities have also led to numerous social and organizational effects. These tools are of course just the latest in a long line of modern technologies that have changed human experience. Today, there are a large number of commercial collaboration products. In addition, collaboration functions are appearing as options in operating systems or specific applications. Collaborative functionality has become widespread and familiar. Disparity in work and benefit. Groupware applications often require additional work from individuals who do not perceive a direct benefit from the use of the application. Major problems have led to the “reinvention” of e-mail. For example, given that e-mail is often used in the context of managing projects, systems have been explored that have a more explicit scheme for task management.
