Web 2.0: Collaboration Software
Another Web 2.0 application suite, Versionate, joins Google
Docs, pbWiki, Social Text and Confluence
in challenging Microsoft's Sharepoint in the collaboration area.
This document-driven wiki-like service accepts uploads of office docs, PDFs, images, (but not PPT files, yet) over SSL connections to create wiki-like editable pages, organized in folders, with version, group and access controls. There's 500MB of storage with the entry-level free account, plus thirty-day trials for more capacious accounts reaching to 20GB at the $2/user-month level.
