Thing #18

This free online tool, Google Docs, is better than using Microsoft Office Tools because of the sharing capabilities. If you are collaborating with someone on a paper or a presentation, it is so much easier to use Google Docs than to write the paper, email it, wait for the other person to edit it and send it back to you. You can both be viewing it and/or working on it at the same time. You really do have a feeling of connectivity when you collaborate in this way. I love this tool.
