Re: [Tyndale STEP - Translations] Re: Google docs

Hi, David. Thank you; this should be useful because I won't have to copy all the work I do offline onto the online version. And for other purposes as well. I am using my e-mail address. Also, I've just gotten SESB unlocked while in a location with wireless, so that should be interesting. I will probably have to check many of the psalms against its apparatus because I've been working without for quite a while.

I think this experiment is not working - we spend more time wrestling with the technology than we should. Lets revert to Word docs, but share them via Dropbox. If you don't already know it, DropBox sits like a normal folder in your "Documents" on your computer, and contains all the files you put there. Whenever you are online, it uploads any changes to a central store (unless the document is still open - so it is a good idea to close documents when you are done). If someone else has changed a file, it downloads the new version to your computer. What this means is that we can share files and yet work on them even when our computer isn't connected to the internet. We can use real Word documents, and not bother with the clumsiness of GoogleDocs. Please go to www.GetDropBox.com and open your own account, tell me the email ID you have used,, and then I will 'share' the relevant folder with you.
