For lawyers, collaboration is not a new concept. To get things done, attorneys must work with others — clients, colleagues and even opposing counsel. What has changed over the past few years, however, is that technology has caught up with collaboration. Today it’s even easier to work with other people, whether they happen to be down the hall, around the corner or on the other side of the world. Most of these collaboration technologies have one thing in common: the Internet.

Microsoft Corp.’s Sharepoint, extranets, and even e-mail are well-known collaborative platforms. But there are innovative, new collaboration technologies that can be found “in the cloud” — Internet-based sites and services that aren’t necessarily designed for the legal community, but that lawyers can use to communicate and work with others no matter where in the world they happen to be.
