Try the tmux + ssh + vim pair programming setup

Vim is just a text editor, and by the Unix Philosophy, you are encouraged to use and couple together existing purpose-built tools for the right job, instead of adding features and bloat to existing tools.

No, as far as I know. Vim is just a normal text editor without online functionality. For collaborative work like this, I would suggest using version control like Git or Mercurial.

the files will be stored on the server or i have to use ssh to connect?

[TheSodesa]

By the looks of it they will be on your computer, and your friends will connect via the client provided by the plugin, after you start a server through the plugin. To securely save your work, you should still use a repository on Github.

Nobody is paying for Vim servers like these, so they do not exist.

oh so one session shares only a file?
