- like your file space, but remote. Requires one time set-up. Any content is accessible by a browser and the content can be referenced and you can point your audience directly to the link of interest (2J26)
- in addition to linking to just the top of the page, linking is more granular (fine-grained accessibility, linking to any bullet point (2J27)

- getting things done without being in the same place, at the same time (2J2H)
