[thelist] Online collaborative working system

[Bruce McIntyre]

And combining OneNote with SharePoint (also from Microsoft) you really
have the team collaboration and management model you want.  SharePoint
is the standard part of MS Office System 2003, or you can use it in a
more substantial form as SharePoint Portal Services.

We use it for all internal collaboration of teams and groups, as well as
integrating with several external customers.  I know many of you love to
"hate" Microsoft, but this environment, plus the addition of Live
Meeting and InfoPath, are delivering value and flexibility to a wide
audience at reasonable cost.

I'd love to evangelise my Tablet PC, and product called OneNote at this
point
:-)

OneNote lets you create a "conference" between multiple users of the
product.
Each person can see the same "whiteboard". Now, if you just have a
keyboard
and mouse you're kinda limited to writing things and/or drawing stuff
with
the mouse. That said, it's still a great tool for organising things.

But if you have either a Microsoft Tablet PC -or- any other
tablet/touchpad
type device, you can easily draw things like mind maps. Each person can
contribute to the same whiteboard. 

If you go to this URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/Office/onenote/prodinfo/demo.mspx
and click the "demo" link you can see the features of OneNote, the
real-time
collaboration options are under "share"

Tablet PCs are amazing (I've got a Toshiba M200), and OneNote is one of
the
things that makes it amazing. 

Cheers
Ken

: Hi
: 
: I want to discuss a project with a couple of friends online. I've
: started with a mind-map
: <http://www.mind-map.com/EN/mindmaps/definition.html> of the issues to
: discuss. The project is currently very unstructured, with various
: ideas requiring further exploration.
: 
: My question is, does anyone have experience of online tools to help
: with this sort of thing?
: 
: I could start an email list, that's fine but not many people's email
: clients support threading.
: 
: I could start a wiki. No idea whether that's simple or not.
: 
: I could install a forum just for this, with all the aspects of the
: project in different sections. That might work, I've never installed
: one though.
: 
: Or I could just keep meeting them in the real world and just do it
: manually.
: 
: Any thoughts anyone?
