There is a virtua pair programming plugin for eclipse: http://sobalipse.sourceforge.net/
Unfortunately, they just destroyed their webpage. Maybe it will be repaired in the next days...

Only if Eclipse had a plugin that allowed virtual pair programming.
It would be nice to pair program at home. I wonder how the data that
is gathered would look as compared to real life pair programming. I
don't know if the the development process would see same results.
Although I don't know how we would gather real life pair programming
data to compare it.
Me thinking in class. Stop reading if you want :D
While not listening to the instructor talk about nested for-loops (I'm
taking a php class...), I started thinking about the virtual pair
programming process and our upcoming addition, hackyJournal. Rather
than have the hacker record what he is doing in a hackyJournal GUI,
what if the hacker's partner wrote the entries into the hackyJournal?
By writing down what his/her partner was doing while pair-programming
and having the original hacker review the results after, would a
better understanding of the system occur?
I don't know if that would generate interesting results. Just a thought. ;p
