TextFlow
http://www.textflow.com/ TextFlow is the only collaborative tool that allows concurrent work. (Several users, each working on their own version of the document.) All other systems deal with concurrent versions by trying to avoid them, either by check-in/check-out schemes or by making users work on the same version simultaneously. Conflicting changes are not a problem. If more than one writer has modified the same text, then they are shown as separate columns beside each other. You can even grab any column and move it to the left or right to rearrange the order if you want to be able to compare two particular versions with each other. |

There are a number of options for everything from sharing images and video to presentations, tasks and more. Here we’ll focus on collaborating on documents in real time, an area that’s improved quite a bit, but still has a way to go. Of these five options, some services require you to create documents online while others allow you to create them off." |

EtherPad : Real Time (text) Collaboration
http://etherpad.com/ EtherPad : Real Time (text) Collaboration Other "real-time" editors like Google Docs work by broadcasting an updated copy of the document to everyone every 15 seconds. This creates a noticeable lag that gets in the way of collaboration. You start editing something, only to find 10 seconds later that someone else deleted it. Etherpad updates every copy of the document every half second. This 30x increase in speed changes the experience completely. Your edits hardly ever clash with other users'. So you work confidently instead of tentatively. Why doesn't Google Docs update every half second like Etherpad does? Because it's really, really hard. We're fairly experienced programmers, and to make this work we had to solve problems that, as far as we know, no one had solved before. |

Document Sharing Sites
http://mashable.com/2008/05/02/sites-to-share-documents-online/ From CMS to online word processors, there is no dearth of services and tools to help you put your documents online. The latest fad seems to be the online document sharing sites where you can upload and share your documents in their original formats. Below are five of the popular ones, some of which we have covered individually on this site before as well. You can also check out how these services stand up against one another in our comparison table here. |

JDarkRoom : A simple full-screen text editor
http://www.codealchemists.com/jdarkroom/ JDarkRoom : A simple full-screen text editor This free Windows/.Net application transforms your entire computer screen into a dark background and removes all the usual word processor toolbars and quick buttons. The only thing you’ll see is the words. Darkroom is quite primitive because of the lack of features and in my opinion, that’s one of the reasons for its charm. You can tweak Microsoft Word and other standard processors to get the same look but I’ll rather use a simple application like this and keep the default look/feel of Word for other editorial purposes. |
