#1 Google docs

I like Google docs. What a great idea. Instead of attaching a document to an email, switch it around and attach an email to the document and share it online so everyone is working on the same document. I found a great template for a scrapbook album and couldn't resist using it for some family photos. Then I shared the album with family members. I can see a potential application here for working on some historical family photos. I have been liaising with my sister to gather details on some photos. The document with the photos and text is too big to email. Google docs would allow us the share the document online and make edits into the same version of the document.

For a work application, I uploaded a document that we were using to gather staff ideas for the re-design of the Returns Room space. I thought it would be a good way to keep track of everyone's input. However, I was unable to invite people. I guess this is due to firewall/security restrictions that are in place. Fortunately I was able to share it with TD@slq.qld.gov.au.
