3.0 out of 5 stars Entry level introduction, but not consistent, January 11, 2007
By Stig Andersen "Stig Andersen" (Copenhagen, Denmark Denmark) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a book that can potentially help the person responsible for an intranet start-up or redesign. She/he may be internal responsible or external assisting consultant.

Pros:
A quick read; covers a lot of ground; will introduce you to the major issues and challenges in intranet development.
Cons:
For people who have been involved with IT/www projects, this book offers little new; several writers have contributed, and the result is an inconsistent flow with some redundancy; the text will cover so many topics (technology, project management, intranet concepts, extranets, mobile devices, usability, information architecture, and more), that a we never really get in depth.

Who will really benefit from this book:
Students, absolutely newcomers to the field, and those who, as bedtime reading, need a catch-up overview of the field.
