Good Project Management Websites

I don't know if this is a good place to post this, because it's more of a general pre-production question involving screenwriting, planning, etc...
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a free project management website? Something like google apps or huddle, that would make it easy to post stuff from celtx, and share storyboards, etc?
If so I think it would make a good sticky...
also...
I've written the majority of a script, and I was thinking of directing it myself, but I don't have a lot of experience... should I get a director or producer?
I was able to get the locations I need, just don't have the people yet, and I'm lacking on some other resources... I was wanting to let my script speak for itself and hopefully people would be motivated to help...
Any suggestions?
 
It is always a good idea to find people who you like working with that fill roles you are not interested in. If you are a little nervous about directing, you could either hire a director and watch him/her, or do it yourself and get the best producer and DP that you can afford and have them help you through the process. (major run on sentence I know)

Having good people around you is extremely valuable. Then you dont have to worry about every little problem like "are the batteries charged in the camera?" It allows you to focus on the talent and realizing your vision.

I read a book a few years ago that I thought provided some good information for beginners. Its called "Reel to Deal". I am sure there are others out there that are great as well.

I have used Filmmaker IQ as a good place to get free forms.

I was introduced to this website by my producer and we used it on my last feature we did. You basically have your cast and crew sign up and you can all view and share the same information so everyone's on the same page. It does a good job at putting you whole project in perspective.
The website is still new and there working out the bugs, but it was big help with the daily call sheets and the phase calendar.

Here's a link to our film "All Gods Creatures"

They even included us in a blog post.

Hope this helps.
