This is cool. Realtime? Awesome.

Some thoughts:

* As others have mentioned, it's too easy to single-click accidentally and create a note.

* Pasting a URL to an image isn't discoverable. An explicit button for this on the toolbar, or one that appears when a new note is created, would be better.

* That aside, I really, really want to be able to just drag and drop images from my computer onto the page.

* As others have noted I wish I could zoom out to see more notes. The "map" is a good start but I think it should be fully zoomable.

* Chat is cool but it sort of takes you out of the experience. Try experimenting with integrating the chat into the corkboard metaphor, maybe: Instead of a pop-up in the lower-left corner, let me create post-its that are actually live chat rooms.

Anyway, this is a great start. I hope you keep improving it!
