Shift
https://tryshift.com

These days, many email users have more than one Gmail account. This can make things a bit tricky when users try to take advantage of Google’s productivity and document sharing features, such as Google Drive and Google Calendar. Shift is a desktop application that enables users to quickly and easily switch between Gmail accounts. For example, users can check the Google Calendar on their personal Gmail account while using Google Docs on their professional email account. Shift also provides users with desktop notifications so they can stay up-to-date about new messages, events, or shared materials on both of their accounts. Available for Mac, Windows, and Linux computers, Shift offers a free Basic account for users to toggle between two Gmail/Inbox/Outlook accounts. Users interested in simultaneously using three or more email accounts have the option of purchasing Shift Pro. This will be added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™.

Quick Topic – Super-Easy Single-Topic Web Forums
https://www.quicktopic.com/

For group discussions, QuickTopic free message boards are better than e-mail. Start a message board in ten seconds. Friends can post on your board here or from their own e-mail. It’s private, or you can easily link to it. QuickTopic fills the gap in social tools between plain old email, broadcast sites like Facebook and Twitter, and long-term solutions like threaded web bulletin boards or mailing lists. Email is cumbersome for long-ish group discussions. Conversations are scattered in in-boxes. Facebook and Twitter are mostly about broadcasting to your friends. Heavyweight collaboration systems are hard to set up and confusing to use. QuickTopic fills the gap by providing a super-easy single-topic web forum that’s also fully email-enabled. You can start a topic in ten seconds, and participants can use just email to participate, or they can use the web board, or both. QuickTopic is mobile-friendly too.
