There are several tools you can use to work with others, although which one you pick may depend on what you hope to achieve. Something as simple as a joint seminar presentation may just involve a couple of emails, a file exchange and a try-out session, but working on a funded project will involve many more steps, more resources, many documents and perhaps people from outside the University.
Remember that there's usually someone who has done something similar, so it's a good idea to ask around. Often your supervisor will know someone, but if not, you can start here. Sometimes you can find a useful contact by looking at previous papers to find someone in a similar field.
