Intranets

An ``intranet'' is an internal network that uses World Wide Web technologies for sharing work and information between departments and/or remote locations. Intranets can be used to facilitate teamwork and project collaboration through e-mail and other network-based applications. Company announcements, health insurance information, corporate policies, procedure manuals and the like can be made readily available from a central, easily updated Web site.
