As some of you might be aware, ShareLaTeX and Overleaf are the two main online $\LaTeX$ editing software companies. They have decided to join forces, which I think is exciting. They have a lot to offer, though I can't go all-out with Overleaf or ShareLaTeX yet. However, the merger might just push me in that direction, particularly if Overleaf were to gain (finally!) a Save As... feature, which has been sorely lacking.

That is interesting! I have only ever used Overleaf for collaborative work but would be interested to see where it could go with more support etc.
