Google docs

Love it! Love it!

I've been using it to summarize readings, make notes to myself for work, keep to-do lists, all the things I've emailed myself (okay, I'm an archivist, I email myself too. And copy to my thumb drive. Redundancy all over - the LOCKSS theory - Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe).

I'll be using it to collaborate on a session for MAC next year - we can work even though we're hundreds of miles away. How much fun is that! We've had a little experience at this - we were classmates, and did "group" presentations by emailing each other before class, and winging it from there. Or flinging it - previous presenters had flung candy at the class to keep their interest. We threw antique media - Duck! 8 track coming!

The one problem is it's all pc based, so I can't work while the spousal unit is playing games, so I hope I win the laptop!
