Pair Programming to the nth

Have you tried programming (not coding) with more than 1 developer as your pair? Its fun (if everyone leaves their ego at the door), highly productive and extremely high quality.

Give it a shot! Connect your laptop to a projector and have the group help you write better code. The results will be quite surprising!

At OOPSLA 2000, in a panel discussion, Kent Beck was challenged on the cost-effectiveness of pair programming. His response was "If typing were the hardest part it wouldn't be cost effective" :-)
