Need to quickly compare two Microsoft Word documents? We’ve just launched a free tool to do just that simuldocs.com/tools/compare-…
We are that missing part 😀
I recently moved my CV on to google docs and I’m having a hard time not saving a chow_cv_full_5_14_20. Feels like a part of me is missing I might need to go back to my Dropbox folder with 109 versions 😬 #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Or... use Simul, all the advantages of Git without leaving Word 🎉
The advice you get in online forums: Q: “I’m having trouble with the undo button in Microsoft Word.” A: “Try using Sublime Text with Git for version control.”

You never think you need version control.... until you do...
Somehow I have ended up here... 😳 Pls share your best practices for managing files! Also, what does your folder structure look like? The folder structure I started my PhD with is no longer appropriate so everything has fallen in a screaming heap. Help! #PhDlife

Just hit version 18 for one of our papers, it's a great experience collaborating with an equally enthusiastic team of authors. Version control FTW

I've been checking out @simuldocs for version controlling Word manuscripts. Impressed so far, as updates occur automatically as you progress with your document. No need to fiddle around with any code or interfaces, you just keep working in Word as per usual

Or you can use simuldocs.com, this is the exact problem we solve! #document #management
My naming convention for paper drafts I send to coauthors: Branch etal 2019 v1.docx Comments with track changes, append author initials Branch etal 2019 v1 MM CCM.docx Send next version back Branch etal 2019 v2.docx Never include "final", "draft" etc. phdcomics.com/comics.php?f=1…
Tip of the day, learn from Dan 😉 Use Simul to track your document versions, no more latest_final_2.docx!
Some news... Very pleased to announce that today was just a normal day. I spent 20 minutes figuring out whether “latest_version.doc” or “latest_MS.doc” was the latest version, reset my online manuscript submission password, and googled “R stats chi test” for the umpteenth time
