A post on the searchCIO.com website, from the SearchCIO.com staff.

This website post provides insight into various eDiscovery issues and provides links to additional resources. The article poses certain questions, such as "How does a CIO tackle e-discovery and litigation-related tasks in a cost-efficient manner while following the letter of the law? And what other potential litigation landmines are there for IT leaders?"

The article provides a table of contents with certain resources and comments for each topic.  The topics include:

Table of contents
  • The impact of social media on e-discovery
  • How e-discovery technology enhances business processes
  • E-discovery cloud considerations
  • Managed services meets e-discovery
  • More resources
As the article points out, "...e-discovery polices will change, given the free-for-all nature of social networking, according to Stew Sutton, principal scientist for knowledge management at The Aerospace Corp., a federally funded research and development center in El Segundo, Calif. His organization has no limits on email retention, but with "social conversations, wikis, blogs and tweet streams, the mass of data sitting out there becomes a problem," he said. The issues can make e-discovery "extremely costly.""
