Discussion Lists With Some Relevance To Telework
The European Commission's Information
Society Project Office (ISPO) provides a discussion list for
those interested in European and general aspects of the Information Society.
Traffic in this list has tailed off since its opening in 1996 and ISPO itself appears not to be using the list as an announcement vehicle.
Team
IT, the special interest group for those interested in
computer-supported collaborative working, provides a discussion list of news and comments on all aspects of online group working, groupware etc.
The Global
Highways Business Group supports a discussion list on information
highways and networked economy matters, with a separate news and announcements
list.
The
CCTA (The UK Government's Centre for Information Systems) provides a range of "Collaborative Open Groups" for online discussion of Information Society matters.
CSCW-Scotland
is a mailing list endeavouring to address this linkage between CSCW and
teleworking. As part of our strategy to encourage closer liaison between
industry and academia, it is promoted to industry including SMEs and teleworkers throughout Scotland. Information on this CSCW list is available at the following website: http://www.mailbase.ac.uk/lists-a-e/cscw-scotland/

How to Find Discussion Lists
These are some sites that help people to find discussion lists relevant
to their interests: The
List of Lists (MIT) - claims to be the "definitive"
list for UESnet newsgroups. Sorted by hierarchy - .comp, biz. etc.
Reference.Com - is an
excellent way of finding email lists and newsgroups.
Listserv
Discussion Groups - a listing of email based lists indexed
by description, name, subject, and also a list of "most popular"
lists.
Liszt: Searchable Directory of e-Mail
Discussion Groups - may be the most comprehensive, around 25,000
entries last time we looked.
The Mailbase server carries a very
wide range of discussion lists, generally supporting UK-based academic or
not-for-profit organisations and topics.
You can also get announcements of new lists by subscribing
to NEW-LIST. TO join send an email to
new-list@vml.nodak.edu
with this message text:

(where your name is replaced by your own name, of course!)
