Collaborating on work across distances has always been difficult. We fly groups together to work temporarily as a single team on a critical project issue. We have regularly scheduled conference calls; we have videoconferencing rooms. We rely deeply on e-mail to stay in step. We try to build single Web-based repositories of project knowledge that are accessible throughout an organization. It has all been a struggle. Distance is misunderstanding.
