It has a very simple photo album feature, with pretty good controls on sharing, and an integrated link to Picnik, the online photo editor. I'm not sure how unwieldy it would end up being for a group of middle-schoolers, but in theory you could share any other document type as well, such as book reviews. Microsoft SkyDrive (at skydrive.live.com) is similar. Microsoft is rolling out a whole new thing for its Live services, so SkyDrive might be completely different by the time you read this (:-). You might also look at Google Sites (sites.google.com), which is basically a web site builder but does support photo albums. What about a file sharing site like Box.net?
