Right now, one of the hottest companies on the Internet is Dropbox (dropbox.com). It lets you share stuff with people as if you had direct access to their computers. Here’s how it works: When you sign up for Dropbox (it’s free) and download the small Dropbox program, a Dropbox folder appears on your computer. When you add a document, image or other file to the folder, it automatically syncs with your Dropbox account online, so you have it in two places. Now comes the sharing part. First, get your studnets or other committee members to sign up for Dropbox and download the program. Then go to Dropbox.com and designate a new or existing folder for sharing. Once you add other members to the folder, it will appear in their Dropbox just as it does in yours, and any changes to the contents of the folder will appear to everyone instantaneously.
