A couple of interesting items have just come to my attention that will interest some of you.

WRIDEA

Wridea is a new online application to facilitate your own brain-storming — and it allows you to invite others to chip in their ideas too.  One must sign up for an account, but it’s FREE.

I’ve just tried it out and am intrigued.  I can enter my ideas, categorize them, add notes for each idea, set up separate pages for different projects and invite friends to take a look and add their own thoughts.  Pretty neat.

As it happens, I’m working on three projects right now that require collaboration across distances.  I’m therefore beginning to search for powerful, yet inexpensive collaboration tools.  DO YOU HAVE ANY COLLABORATION TOOLS TO RECOMMEND?  Please leave your comments.

The major difficulty I’m finding is that some of my collaborators just never log in to the collaboration site.  Have not yet figured out how to get these people actively involved.

TWELVE POINT — for scriptwriters

TwelvePoint is an online resource center for scriptwriters.  It is jam-packed with information and useful tools.  But it’s NOT FREE.

The site, however, has just issued an invitation for a one-week free trial.  This is an excellent opportunity to see if this site will be helpful to you.  Here’s what the site developer sent me as a teaser:

It’s easy to apply for your free trial. Just email jonquil@twelvepoint.com with ‘free trial’ as the subject and she will contact you with details of how to access the site. Please note, because TwelvePoint.com provides such a wealth of information, you may not apply for more than one free trial a year.”

NOTE:  I’ve accumulated quite a number of links about other collaboration applications below.  If this topic interests you, take a look.  To be honest, I’ve added them for my own reference, but you might have this list useful as well.
