A web portal is a website that
contains information from different
sources and places them in one
location in a uniform way.
 Online Collaborative Tools

Working together does not necessarily

mean you have to be physically
together. These tools can help your
group “go the distance” and work as if
you already have your own office.
An example of a web portal is Yahoo! (www.yahoo.
com). Yahoo.com offers a web portal where news,
email, weather, etc. are found in one page.
There are plenty of online collaborative tools:

1. You can use Facebook groups to create a group page

that will allow people in your group to communicate your
ideas.
2. WordPress also allows you to multiple contributors for a
single blog.
3. Google Drive and Microsoft Office Online allow
multiple people to work on different office files and even
have their own group’s cloud storage.
4. Microsoft’s Yammer offers companies to have their own
social network that allows sharing and managing content.
5. Sites like Trello offer an online to-do checklist for your
entire team.
