I searched so long for a opportunity where i can edit sourcecode with a friend or a co-worker together - collaborative editing.

I found Gobby, Bespin (Skywriter) by Mozilla, Cloud9 IDE (at this time not public - only beta) and so on, but its either not in the cloud (Online) or its not for collaborative editing.

What i seach for is for example http://jsfiddle.net/ for collaborative editing.

Does anybody know a way / website for this?

Get your self a version control system: SVN,CVS,GIT to name a few, best approach when needing multiple editors.

Also, github.com is a nice online repository. – Nick Feb 25 '11 at 0:15
@Nick i wouldn't know i use SVN on my own web hosts for everything. – Dean Feb 25 '11 at 0:17
Version control systems have their purpose, but you can't use them for pair programming which seems to be the purpose of the question. – Cristian Ciupitu Feb 25 '11 at 1:03

Etherpad. Even if it was closed, its source code is available so you can run your own server or you can use one of the available public servers. By the way, there are plans to include Etherpad in Fedora.

Also take a look at http://collabedit.com

++ for Etherpad as the best way to run your own...

For free, I've used CollabEdit and though it has basic features it really rocks for most of my needs: http://collabedit.com/

For a paid solution (one could usually expect better quality but I am to poor to confirm this at this this time): https://squadedit.com
