No Technology Needed:

Buy a domain name at GoDaddy if serious

You know how to upload to FTP
Cheap and Unreliable PHP Hosting = $60 a year = $12 a member for the semester

At the End of the Day
It’s about getting it done. Too much management at an early stage can be a bad thing. These are my best practices and have changed at least once a semester. The important thing is to be efficient and to use them as a team.
