Just had a great meeting with the one and only Lynne Gibb from Coonara House. We started out in the new Access ACE Victorian elluminate room .. moved across to a new wiki near the e-showcase ACFE wiki .. and then realised we couldn’t edit the same wiki page at the same time.
So moved over to google docs, where it was easier to collaborate, because the system is set up to auto-save the work of all people editing. Really great to watch someone else typing as they talk you through the changes .. or rather to see the text arrive in the document at the same time. Good to know that when i save, i won’t accidentally overwrite Lynne’s words.
At the end we decided that we hadn’t really needed the Elluminate session (although it was a good place to start), but could have used Skype + Google docs to talk each other through the collaborative editing process.
