I think, by and large, the biggest change has been the advent of GoogleDocs, specifically Google Spreadsheets. With this technology, we can collaborate in defined, organized spaces. We just didn't have that ability before.
Also, especially for the first 14 hours and then Saturday afternoon and evening, and here-and-there throughout the other parts of the hunt, we had people dedicated to Comms. I wish things would've been integrated slightly more and I wish we had another printer or two, but it was frankly pretty good. Next year, as long as we continue to stay on the ball, our experience will only make us better (and hopefully we can pad our ranks just a bit and get lucky enough to have a few more remotes able to make it locally). Anyway, I still have not caught up on sleep, so I'm going to try to swing another full eight hours tonight. Goodnight!
