Read Bak's paper.

"The way I read this, it places Information Governance in a realm in which
records management is defined as a need but lower on the totem pole.  IG
will require IT to manage it and massive software to truly deliver IG.
 Monitoring and warehousing phone calls, text messages, tweets and other
realms of the Smart Phone world will be an IT function."

Alan Murdock authored a paper on this issue when he was Archivist for
Pfizer, back in the day. Dig it up.

"
More and more we will see the cell phones being left in the car and all
communication prohibited that is not on the official phone system and via
official link computers where the corporate software can manage it."

Maybe in the short term. When the cell phone goes away (not to long from
now) this will change.

"More and more we will see the cell phones being left in the car and all
communication prohibited that is not on the official phone system and via
official link computers where the corporate software can manage it."

Not to long from now I see cell phones as we know them migrating to
satellite phones. You vision of total control at that point will be a
reality. Users will be thin client. Band width will not be an issue.
Everything will be stored remotely. Secure environments will not need to
restrict information at the point of creation. Information will be
controlled at the point of storage.

What will Records Managers be in this new world? How long before we get
there?
We will get there faster than folks think. they have already stopped
putting up cell towers in most if not all areas. As phones reach saturation
land lines will be gone (2-5 years) bandwidth and others issues, some of
which you address, will drive alternative solutions.

We, as Records Managers, could seek to drive our new identity in this brave
new world. However, if history is any example, we will wait (probably to
long) for the forces of change to define our role. we might survive, if the
courts catch up to the change fast enough. Technology could render us
obsolete, much like punch card operators of the seventies.

Will IG allow for the role of COI? We don't want to become CIO's unless
there is no other avenue. Most Records Managers could not make the
transition anyway.

we live in interesting times.
Fall is upon us.
