As we're a virtual PR team, apart from our PCs and phones, we use a lot of software and technology in the cloud to ensure that we can work together effectively as a PR team wherever we are. We did a quick poll of what makes our lives easier and here are our absolute favourites:
- Skype – www.skype.com – chat, we use MSN too but prefer Skype
- Dropbox – www.getdropbox.com – sharing files
- Yuuguu – www.yuuguu.com screen sharing, web conferencing and IM when screen sharing and conferencing
- Yousendit – www.yousendit.com – sending big files
- Bugshooter – www.bugshooter - screen dumps
- Google apps – for email, calendar etc
- Mozy – www.mozy.com – online backups
