Abstract

Information is shared between processing entities that each have a corresponding private data area by placing data corresponding to information for a first one of the private data areas for a first one of the processing entities directly into a second one of the private data areas for a second one of the processing entities without placing the data in an intervening shared data area and without directly invoking a system administrator-like entity. In addition, these private data areas can be pre-populated with a plurality of directories that each have a one-to-one correspondence to a particular predetermined information recipient and then providing a link to a given one of the recipients as corresponds to a given one of the directories when information is placed in that directory to provide the corresponding predetermined information recipient with at least read access to the information.
