[dba-Tech] Question on collaborative choices

I don't know, to be honest. I just create sites and assign users. Don't have to actually use them myself. I'd imagine that it's similar to how it would work on a normal network, either the document is shared, or it says "Someone else has this file open, would you like to view it as read-only?"

Ummm, that doesn't sound very exciting.  What happens if we have OUR.XLS on "somewhere" and I decide to work on it and you do too a few minutes later.
How does "Collaborative Choices" handle that?  Clearly, I am off the pace here!

Not really... Just somewhere where you can keep everything together but without having to give access to your network to external clients, and vice versa.

Ah, right.  Something like version control.

These are ways that more than one person can use the same documents without necessarily being in the same building, domain or network, or needing to email them backwards and forwards, thereby removing the likelihood of creating multiple copies of documents, and not knowing which one is the current version.

At least, that's what we use sharepoint for...

I'll be running a poll next week on collaborative choices for Office users.
What else is out there for Office users who need this type of flexibility besides the following:

Office Live Workspace
SharePoint
The Cloud
Goggle Docs
