Hydra is a decent text editor in its own right, but what makes it interesting is its collaborative editing feature: just click on the "share" button and you can allow others on a network to edit the document right along with you. Click the Rendezvous button and share over an ad hoc wireless network! Too damn cool.
They mention extreme pair programming on their home page as one possible use. I wonder how it could be used in the classroom…
