"Finding and organizing information is the No. 1 problem in technology"

MWT's mission: "to help people gain control of their digital data through software that lets them find their files more easily."

Their product, Scopeware, is basically a P2P client, like gnutella, but designed for corporate use.

They have an interesting solution to the document management issue, because documents are stored on employees' hard drives, but it doesn't help document collaboration.

Here's the Business Week article about them. (thanks kim)
