http://docs.google.com provides a mechanism of sharing doc and excel files among the team members of a project and also to perform collaborative work across the learning centers. We could use google-docs for all course/project reports and for combining teams from various learning centers.
http://www2.blogger.com allows posting a topic and receiving comments. We could create http://msitsoftskills.blogspot.com and allow the students to post their 1-page writing assignment. The soft skills mentor can comment on them and it would also be easy to do a peer-reviewing by others. Using msitsoftskills.blogspot we can also involve mentors (remotely and probably larger in number) to provide comments on the writing assignments in a short time.
http://calendar.google.com allows sharing the calendars and thus could include MSIT almanac, course's start-end date, holiday lists etc.
http://vyew.com is about sharing the desktop and the screen for making remote presentations using PDF, PPTs etc. It is browser based, and also provides tools to draw and annotate on the screen during presentation (which is viewed/shared on the other side). Speech-Lab, IIIT and CMU have been using this tool for remote presentations on what they call wednesday-meetings. http://www.gotomeeting.com is another such tool.
pls feel free add some more ....
