My Drive is full with many ideas and thoughts to work on my skills for my new treasure. Recently, i re-started (I am programmer at college days) my learning's on different programming languages.  Old days - when we want to share our code with friends, to improve and work together - we used to share them via mails then shared folders. Recently, i got to knew about: Gist Github .  Gist is an collaboration tool from Git hub - A simple pastebin-style of site, where we can share the code snippets written in different programming languages, text files quickly with others. It also highlights the programming code with markdown. This Gists are Git hub repositories, they are automatically version-ed and fork-able. Want to try out: Check -  Gist Github
