That is an awesome idea and a great implementation of it. Wish I had come up with something so simple and useful! Thanks for this!

Wow, I have been looking from something exactly like this. I tried to see if google live docs would do something like this when two people are sharing a doc and editing at the same time, but it didn't work. This is great if you have a class where the class notes are on power point and you got some buddies in the class. One could start for the begining, the other from the end, and one could be the proofreader n stuff. Only problem I see w/ this is It doesn't have any sort of spell check or any tools. I guess once everything is done it would be best to just copy and paste to google docs.

Shared with my infosys lecturer

Hi Ben

Yes, you are quite correct. In my lectures to the 100 level paper it
is one of a number of examples given, and I use it in collaboration
with my editors at McGraw-Hill in Australia.

I will see if I can work it in somewhere.

Thanks

Peter
