No sign-in is nice as an option, but the fact that you can't sign in is a negative for me - I'd like to be able to manage multiple documents and projects within an account like on ScribTeX.

Oh, and ShareLaTeX looks really good; thanks for sharing! I'm going to try it out now.

Hi StevenXC - thanks for the comments - we've now developed a sign in option which is planned as part of our next release - we were planning to push tomorrow, looking to see if we can do it now!

And as if by magic - you can now sign up to manage your docs on writelatex.com :-)

"Password is too short (minimum is 8 characters)" - this can lose you users. I don't want to invent yet another password just to try this out. So offer feedback on password strength, but let users decide on the secutity/convenience tradeoff. Better yet, use openid.

[JohnHammersley]

Thanks for the feedback - that's a very good point, as it to use openid.

Slick, thanks.

[JohnHammersley]

We aim to please :-)

WriteLaTeX looks pretty cool. Have you looked at using the methods from Kile for better syntax highlighting? I noticed a problem on the (otherwise excellent) main page with the text boxes: http://imgur.com/SojY1, Chrome 23.0.1271.95, Linux, zoom 125% (though that doesn't seem to change it). Also, is Asymptote support planned? (The rotatable 3D figures probably aren't very feasible, but everything else should be.)

Thanks!

We are working on better syntax highlighting. I'll have a look at Kile's, now that you've mentioned it.

Thanks for reporting the issue with the text boxes.

I hadn't seen Asymptote before, but it looks very good, so I'll have to think about it. Thanks for the link! :) (Edit: note that we do support pgfplots, which also makes nice plots.)
