Collaboration Resources for Business
One of the biggest problems facing creatives today is often just how many people need to work together to get a project off the ground. It is vital that you are able to share, collaborate and learn with your team no matter where they are based.
Drop Box
Drop Box is a great way to share and store information in the cloud. It runs on the same principals as Hotmail or Gmail. You set up an account with a password and upload the files you want to share into this account. You are then able to view and share that folder with any of your computers or anyone else you want. You simply invite someone to share your folder by typing in their email address, they click yes and away you go. DropBox is so popular these days as you can store huge files in DropBox far more than you could ever email. A basic Account is free (up to 2GB) and should be more than adequate for the solo professional. Paid upgrades are easily available for larger projects and are still quite reasonable.
