Electronic discovery is a corporate counsel's worst nightmare. In simpler times, (what, two or three years ago?), you had to worry about paper, intranets, laptop and desktop computers, PDA's, and servers. Today, you also have to worry about the blogs, the wiki's, the podcasts, and all of those other cool things the Web 2.0 companies keep throwing at tech-hungry business executives.
Worse still, the demands of electronic discovery impose on you the burden of knowing more about IT than ever before. What backup solutions does the company use? When does it use them? Does it use tapes? If so, where are they kept? Can a gazillion pages really fit on that tiny, tiny disk? What do you mean the disk is full!?? Meta-what?
How do you deal with this morass? There are some great resources out there--it's just a matter of finding them. Let me give you some ideas:
