Ask HN: tools for collaboration with a remote cofounder

We are a team of two: I'm a developer and my cofounder is a designer. We work remotely and constantly looking for ways to improve our communication to make it as close as possible to a real-life interaction when it comes to efficiency.

So far, that's what we've got (we try to stick to free tools):

* Skype for video conferencing

* Screenhero for screen sharing

* Dropbox for file sharing

* Shared ical calendars

* Useful links shared by email/twitter

Works out alright so far, except for the last one. It's difficult to keep track and organize useful content, maybe a wiki would do here.

I've tried to use Asana for task management on previous project with 3+ people and it was quiet efficient. For a team of two I feel like it would be an overkill, as we are always up-to-date with each others progress by having daily skype status calls.

Which tools do you use?
