Conclusion
The art of discussion isn't dead; it's just gone "high-tech." In terms of MOSS 2007, discussions take advantage of the web format long used by Usenet groups and more recently seen in Internet discussion boards. Including discussion groups on your company's site collection allows various work groups or teams to interact with each other on common projects, regardless of where they are located. A team in Singapore developing an application in Perl can consult with the Perl Languages team in Boise, exchanging ideas and suggestions. This conversation is recorded so that these groups can refer back to what was said. Other departments or field offices can also glean any information from these threads as it applies to their projects. Once you've implemented this option in your site collection, you will never want to be without it.
