Collaboration Tools

My sister and I have started a new project together, we are writing a collection of family stories for our genealogy. We have been having a great time using Google Docs. Google Docs is perfect for this project, it makes it so convenient for us to work on the stories when time permits. It is not always possible for us to have time to work together in person, but this tool lets each of us add, delete, or edit the others work. Thanks 23 things on a stick for introducing it to me.

9 TOAS

Oh how I wish I would have known about this a few weeks ago. Our library, along with 3 others and the youth initiative for the county made up a listing of all the youth activities for the summer. We spent days sending information back and forth to get the listing ready. Online collaboration tools would have made it so much easier.

Google Docs seems to be the easier of the two to use, but has less features. Zoho Writer has more features such as photos. I liked them both. The project I would be working on would detemine which of these tools I would use.

The Founding Fathers would have been in heaven, with tools like these. Our Nations Independence would have been much earlier.
