ESIP provides a platform for virtual collaboration with several tools for clusters and groups to use for collaboration: (1) this wiki; (2) Teleconference numbers for the U.S. and (3) GoToMeeting for web meetings. Beyond these tools, the group has also developed methods for implementing these tools and they are collected and shared in this workspace.

Tagging

Screencasting - show how to do something instead of write.

Google Docs - Share online documents instead of passing documents through e-mail.

  • Spreadsheets

Google Calendars - create a calendar for your group. For telecons, meetings and other events.

Google Analytics as a metric for workspace productivity, monitor where visitors are coming from geographically and on the web, what is of most interest, where do they leave?
