The Web, wireless devices, and wireless networks have increased the opportunities for supporting pervasive document access and sharing. However, today's solutions remain spotty in their coverage of pervasive information needs. To address this, the authors developed AnySpot, a Web-service-based platform for seamlessly connecting people to their personal and shared documents wherever they go. They describe AnySpot's design principles and how it meets users' key pervasive information needs. They also report on their experiences deploying it in a large, multi-national organization.
