[OPLINTECH] Staff Intranet

[Chauncey Montgomery]

Mindy,

We have an staff intranet and use a simple Wordpress blog to post news 
and information. All staff can post to it.  It is nice because it keeps 
a running, searchable record. We also use MediaWiki on the staff 
intranet to organize policies, procedures, etc.

Both Wordpress and MediaWiki are easy to install and use.  Also, they 
are open source, so the price is right.

This all runs on an isolated staff server, so public has no way to 
access it.  Bob Neeper, our Network Manager, could give you more info on 
that if you want.

Let me know if you want more details.
