Roger/All:

Bob & All, please review netage.com
and see if the concepts there will be of any help to us, post your thoughts.

In reviewing the material on virtual teams a few things came to mind.

1. A few years ago, as part of a start up Internet company, do to a number of things, lack of money for space, and travel time for a lot of people, we started operating as Virtual teams.

One thing we learned early on was the need to have a very brief coffee club talk via e-mail the very first thing in the a.m. Where, what we would be doing that day. Very brief but it did have a very positive "social" impact.

2. I think that Roger's Short Thread is a little like a virtual team. Several hi-profile "leaders," lots of contributors, Lots of shared knowledge, etc.

3. The mini book is must reading. Lots of good ideas. netage.com

Thanks to 1stSunRay

4. Two things on virtual teams that did not come through in the mini book was that teams only exist until the job is complete. Well sometimes jobs are never complete but I think you know what I mean. The second is that people often become member's of multiple teams. That may have been in there however, I may have missed it.

The web based "getting started" (I think it is chapter 8) is really quite good in forcing virtual team members through a getting started process. Very useful.
