Abstract

With the rising number and importance of projects in diff erent business and other areas, the need to support persons in charge of or working on projects is becoming more and more topical. Accurate and timely data about project plans, actual progress and costs, proposed solutions etc. are of vital importance for project managers and consequently for assuring the project’s success. Appropriate information systems and technologies need to be at hand for project managers and project team members. While special solutions, developed for project oriented environments in the past, offered a great support for project managers, some new and still insufficiently recognized opportunities for improving projects’ efficiency arise from web 2.0 technologies. The paper presents some of the functions deriving from different web 2.0 products usable for project management needs, as well as some of the web 2.0 technologies that can be useful for project management.
