An intranet is defined as an internal network that utilizes Internet technology in order to provide a better interface with important business information.
Intranets are a concept that evolved in the last few years as information technology specialists realized that the Internet had resulted in products and techniques that would benefit users of a company LAN.
Support for the deployment of an intranet was critical to generating acceptable returns.

 Practical Solutions for Business Intranets
Intranets can be a cost effective alternative to investing in new systems because they leverage the investment in existing information systems including network infrastructure, workstations, servers and legacy application systems.
Intranet technologies provide a common application development platform and an intuitive user environment that allows organizations to deploy applications much faster and at dramatically lower operating costs.
Intranets also permit external business partners, shareholders and analysts to have limited access to financial data to build tighter relationships with these constituencies and provide them with timely, accurate information.

The next big wave in Intranet development is in the emerging area of enterprise knowledge management - the art of increasing the capacity of the organization to make better decisions, innovate and to increase the value of each and every employee in terms of their knowledge and competencies.
Enterprises that are further along the Intranet curve are discovering there is a pay-off to their Intranet strategies while those just beginning are merely dreaming of hard results.

Intranet sites are designed for internal use by a company, not customers or casual users.
Most company personnel already have their computers tied into the company's network, so accessing a new intranet does not require any additional effort on the part of the IS department, other than to provide a way for the site to be shared by those on the network.

 Running Man, Inc. - Intranets   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
An Intranet is a private computer network that uses Internet standards and protocols to enable members of an organization to communicate and collaborate more efficiently with one another, thereby increasing productivity.
Simply put, an Intranet is a corporate-wide Web site that is restricted to members of the organization, and protected from the reach of the general public.
An Intranet can reach across a building, a campus, or around the world; however, access is limited to the users of the organization.

 Interview from Intranets What's the Bottom Line
Now in August of 1994 intranet technology did not have anywhere near enough functionality to compete with Notes, but it was apparent that the velocity of development was so fast that within a year intranets would be able to hold their own in a direct confrontation.
In April of 1995 the intranet appeared on the Notes radar screen, and by the fall of 1995 (one year after our focus groups) the intranet was considered by many to be the winner.
I think he's playing multiple strategies right now, and his preferred strategy is to use this movement to grab a bigger share of the application market, and then use his near monopoly market share to migrate as many of the key pieces back into his proprietary control as soon as possible.

 Amazon.com: Intranet Business Strategies: Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Revealing the best intranet uses, including its advantages and disadvantages, the book explores how an intranet will fit into the organization, who is going to use it, what it should look like, and other practical strategic issues.
There are no strategies at all, rather a set of high level, very glib statements about the fact that "you should sell the Intranet internally" (where else would you sell it?) and "the four stages of a team".
Perhaps I was hoping for too much in a book called "Intranet Business Strategies", and so the only redeeming feature of this book is that if you know nothing about an Intranet (from basic people management, technology, or perhaps even putting an agenda together for a meeting), then this is the book for you.

 Digital Web Magazine - Three approaches to Intranet Strategy
A knowledge management approach to Intranets is one that seeks to use the Intranet to find and organize all of the information that resides within an organization.
For example, an Intranet used for knowledge management may have an area where employees can discuss and collaborate on documents; or, an Intranet may be focused on allowing employees to complete tasks online, but also providing them with a knowledge repository to assist them in completing their task.
Intranet growth need not be restricted to these categories, but understanding their purposes, differences, and benefits can help to make an Intranet more useful and help a team, department, or organization more quickly and easily reach their goals.
