Choosing tools is a daunting task. No actually, it's completely overwhelming! Did you know that there are over 3,000 collaboration tools online right now? And new ones are showing up almost every day! For example, check out this awesome tools list we found that's being managed by a UK research institute. Everything you'll ever need to become an online collaboration tools guru is here, with many of the tools being free.
