Their newest application, <a href=\"http:\/\/writeboard.com\/\">Writeboard<\/a>, was released over this past weekend, it\u2019s great. For those who haven\u2019t already heard of it, in a nutshell it\u2019s a way to create single-page <a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.org\/wiki.cgi?WhatIsWiki\">wiki<\/a> without even needing a user account. You can just create a page, and all you need to edit the page is a password.<\/p>\n<p>You can share it with as many people as you want. You can make as many edits as you want, and the versions are always displayed along the right margin. When someone comments on a page, the comment is associated with a revision of the document. You can save a copy as HTML or plain text at any point. They\u2019ve done such a good job with their wholly unique take on the \u201cwiki\u201d that it\u2019s become more useful to us than the wiki we\u2019ve been using in-house!<\/p>\n<p>And the hidden genius? Even though writeboard is really a standalone application, they\u2019ve already integrated it with <a title=\"Backpack\" href=\"http:\/\/backpackIT.com?referrer=KANDACEBRIGLEB\">Backpack<\/a>, and will soon integrate it with <a title=\"Basecamp\" href=\"http:\/\/basecampHQ.com?referrer=KANDACEBRIGLEB\">Basecamp<\/a>. The Backpack integration has already convinced Kandace and I to plunk down $5\/month on Backpack, even though our company has a Basecamp account. By letting Backpack users integrate unlimited Writeboards into their paying accounts, they\u2019ve effectively tricked us into paying for their free service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whiteboard was released over this past weekend, it\u2019s great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5912,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[556,394],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/thumbnail.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2109"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2109\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/needmoredesigns.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
