Can't get your team on the same page? Why not start by sharing a monitor?
It's not easy getting a team to work together. The larger the team, the harder it is for people to fully communicate ideas. Because of this, anything that improves communication is guaranteed to increase productivity.
My idea is to have shared second monitors, which means that each team member would have a second monitor that is shared, in real-time with everyone else on the team.
The second monitor could be centrally located on a large screen... or mirrored on individual monitors at each team member's desk. You would work with it just like a second monitor, except that whenever somebody interacts with it, everyone on the team sees it.
To make it happen, the each computer would have a virtual monitor driver that acts a bit like a terminal server, except that the display itself can be updated by anyone in the team.
