Re: [Nolug] Re: Music and Technology

Chris,
I found an interesting story about a music maker using git for version
control and collaboration:
http://www.basementhum.com/2009/02/version-control-and-maxmsp-part-2.html

What was the name of that online music collaboration site someone at the
2600 meeting suggested to you and you said you had just signed up for it?

Thanks,
Simon
