SquadEdit: Paired-programming remotely?!
http://www.squadedit.com

Overview: SquadEdit allows any number of people to edit code files simultaneously from your browser. Load the files you want to edit, invite your collaborators, and start coding! Everyone sees the edits as they occur.

Pros:
+ Great if you need to do paired-programming without being in the same physical location!
+ Include code files locally or remotely
+ Syntax highlighting!

Cons:
- Text chat is so yesterday if need to collaborate in real-time. This app needs voice chat.
- You cannot actually code at the same time. When one person is editing the file, it becomes locked!
- Sharing a collaboration link should be integrated into the app
- Not free

Verdict:
2 Codes Edits / 5
