Damn. Now I have to track that down. I sent another e-mail to your profile addy.
None of it means a damn thing.

Can anyone recommend free web-based platforms for collaborating with people? I am working on group projects with classmates in a distance education program. Blackboard seems a bit clunky and I'm not sure it lets people upload and then collaboratively edit documents, which is my main thought right now for what I want to do. Ideas?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
GoogleDocs?

flea - Campfire was recommended to me here months ago - it's pretty good. [link]
also, google tools - you can create a group and edit documents, chat, etc.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Flea, do you need people to be able to see and edit the document(s) simultaneously?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'll chime in with GoogleDocs again, just because I've heard many good things about it for just what you seem to need.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
fourthing (?) GDocs -- Blackboard definitely doesn't do what you want.

Ginger, I wonder if comcast is screwing with your domain. I did not receive you email at may profile. I'm going to try sending to you from gmail.
[Update] No not Comcast. Same bounce from gmail. Can you send me email from another account, cause I still have not got anything from you either. Your email is two initials at a commercial domain for web and print editing, yes?
