A while ago I noticed that within my team there can sometimes be communication problems, so I began thinking of ways to improve communication. I came up with an idea to have an online team portal, with forums, meeting times, updates, etc. That alone isn't really anything special, and many teams already have something similar to this, but then again, many teams don't. I then began thinking that other teams would find something like this useful. Sure they could do it themselves, but many teams don't have someone with the technical know-how to set something like this up. I did some more thinking, and instead of explaining the process I took to come up with the idea, I'll just tell you the idea.
In short, here is... THE IDEA:
A FIRST portal for teams that allows greater team communication, through forums, chat, a calendar, a member directory with contact information, etc. This could also be extend to allow better communication between teams, and provide help for rookie teams.

I'm not sure what the best way to do this would be yet, or if its even a good idea, so I am asking you what think about this idea, and if you have any suggestions or concerns.
If you wish to help with this project, or would like to contact me personally, email me, IM me, or look for me in the tigerbolt chat.
