also depending on how your location is set up if you have users that
are exchagneing files internally for shareing/collaboration an
alternative would be to set up a jabber server as and internal chat
application.

http://www.jabber.org/web/Main_Page

but its hard to be fully useful in suggestions without knowing more
about what you are intending to do.

an alternative would be a content management tool that allows forum
style posts with file attachments as part of it so updates and
alterations can be attached in a historical manner. there are a number
of options here to work with.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
