Collaboration Online
On the ‘Mission to Learn’ blog (www.missiontolearn) Karen Schweitzer presents ‘15 Free Online Collaboration Tools and Apps‘, an interesting collection.
Unfortunately my own absolute favourites are missing in this list, and so I will round them up here:
- mind42.com – Collaborative Mind-Mapping in your browser. It can import and export freemind and MindManager so you can use it as a format-converter, too. Strong.
- flowchart.com – A online multi-user, real-time flowchart software. Flowcharting at its finest.
- GoogleDocs – Useful for sharing documents and spreadsheets. Solid and reliable.
- GoogleMail – in combination with GTDInbox and Firefox it becomes THE organisation-tool for David Allen’s Getting Things Done method. Email not square nor cubed but to the ten!
- Dropbox – Online storage with synchronisation (!) over several PCs.
- Jing – Make screen-videos as easy as a screenshot and upload directly to YouTube.
- DimDim – Web conferencing free up to 20 participants – and incredibly easy to use.
