Web Collaboration Tools - Comparisons and Demos

This meetup is a discussion of Web Collaboration tools. Businesses and groups now have a wealth of choices for collaborating with a wide range of web based applications. For remote workers and virtual teams, these tools are essential. A typical team will use several tools, some of them proprietary and expensive, some of them opensource and free. We'll give short demonstrations of the tools that some Bend based teams and individuals use. Some of the questions we'll address: What are pros and cons of some popular Web collaboration tools? Which collaboration tools are best for teams, for projects, for developers, for marketing? Questions from meeting attendees and subsequent discussions! More detail is also found on the BendTech.com site http://blog.bendtech.com/2009/11/learn-more-about-web-collaboration-tools/ We'd like to know what web collaboration tools you are using now. When you register for this meetup, please leave comments about your favorite tools (or tools you'd like to learn more about).
