Staffguardian; keeping track if a distributed team

At first I thought this was a bit too Big Brother'ish. Bu then I got to think how useful it would be to keep tabs on fellow team members who are travelling about. This website called Staffguardian provides the facility to show the location of everyone in the team. It is easy to use, though there is a small monthly fee.

How about community nurses using something like this to keep connected with each other. Or project managers who may be working across a variety of sites.

If I knew where people were, and their availability, I think I might more often have phonecalls and I might do less email.

Show your screen and comment

Sometimes I am asked to review smeone's website or a page they are developing. Or I might have a problem using part of it. I end up sending emails with descriptions - all very long winded.

Owely has developed a very simple solution where you capture the screen, then use their functions to annotate the capture - like put an arrow and a comment on the picture. Then all you have to do is email your contact with a link and they then get to see your comments.

Easy. Productive.
