Box.net Announcing Business 2.0 Collaboration BETA
Box.net is now more reliable and become almost as handy when you are away from your computer as your trusted thumb drive—maybe even more so. After few months development, Box.net officially released the Beta of their new collaboration functionality. This feature is as simple as to use that enables you to share any folders with colleagues, friends, and family who also have Box.net accounts.
How to use:
A new right-click option has been enabled on this feature. Just simply invite collaborators to any folder and those users will see the same folder appear in their accounts. And also, when a new file is added, each subscribed user will receive a notification either by email or in their Updates tab.
Collaborators can be chosen as “Viewer” (allow to view) or “Editor” (allow to edit) before you send out the invitation. And then give the send-out file a description for easy notification to the collaborators.
More, collaboration is fully compatible with OpenBox, so you can edit documents in a shared folder with Zoho, photos with Picnik, and more! Everyone can participate in as many folders as they’re invited to. Free accounts, however, will only be able to create 3 collaboration folders.
