I'm opened a test account. So far, it offers so many choices and messages it can be confusing. I feel a bit lost. I can see where it's going (thanks to Google docs), but I'm not tempted to bring anyone else into this environment yet. It's tightly integrated with MS-Office, so it's got the power of MS-Office (I think) and the sharing concept behind Google documents. It also has screen sharing for those who want to work synchronously. This is getting interesting. Steve
