Web Collaboration

"Hey, you need to talk to..."

I love hearing that in a conversation. But when a person in McLaren Vale, South Australia, suggests you talk with someone in Adelaide (who in turn recommends you talk with a good friend in Emeryville, CA)... ...oh, and you want to include your VP of Business Development, who is in Bolivia?

I'm happy to say we did just that, quite effectively, thanks to several web services:

1. CommunityWalk reminded me how poorly I fared in geography class;
2. World Meeting Planner told me Adelaide is + 9.5 GMT;
3. GoToMeeting allowed us to see each others' PCs;
4. Skype allowed us to communicate.

It won't be long before we see a mashup for at least three of the four services we used.
