Google Wave
http://wave.google.com/
Google Wave is a tool for communication and collaboration on the web, release late 2009.
Watch the demo video, sign up for updates and learn more about how to develop with Google Wave.
Open source
A wave is equal parts conversation and document. People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.
A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.
A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.

TextFlow
http://www.textflow.com/
TextFlow is the only collaborative tool that allows concurrent work. (Several users, each working on their own version of the document.)
All other systems deal with concurrent versions by trying to avoid them, either by check-in/check-out schemes or by making users work on the same version simultaneously.
Conflicting changes are not a problem. If more than one writer has modified the same text, then they are shown as separate columns beside each other. You can even grab any column and move it to the left or right to rearrange the order if you want to be able to compare two particular versions with each other.

EtherPad : Real Time (text) Collaboration
http://etherpad.com/
EtherPad : Real Time (text) Collaboration
Other "real-time" editors like Google Docs work by broadcasting an updated copy of the document to everyone every 15 seconds. This creates a noticeable lag that gets in the way of collaboration. You start editing something, only to find 10 seconds later that someone else deleted it.
Etherpad updates every copy of the document every half second. This 30x increase in speed changes the experience completely. Your edits hardly ever clash with other users'. So you work confidently instead of tentatively.
Why doesn't Google Docs update every half second like Etherpad does? Because it's really, really hard. We're fairly experienced programmers, and to make this work we had to solve problems that, as far as we know, no one had solved before.
