Some use cases would be:
a. QA recording bugs instead of writing tedious instructions for repo, since you can use the inspector on the recording.
b. Developers making changes instantly showing it to multiple people.
c. Office food ordering - one person signed in, send the link around and people can pick their hard to pronounced Thai food.
d. Collaborative travel planning
e. Pair programming with an online editor of your choice
This is a shared control, interactive collaboration, similar to shareJS but WITHOUT developer integration. Not just add chat to any website. That would be lame. Had to clarify, as some people expressed confusion.
I've been using this to test the usability of our internal management with the team and figure out bugs. It's fun to send recorded snippets of future functionality too. Love it!
Wow, content sharing and collaboration via url only; no fuss, no mess. Sounds like a great way for digital agencies to review and solicit client feedback. Sweet!
This is so much better than Go-to-Meeting and Google Hangouts screenshare! Looking forward to trying this out for client demos. Good work Jessica and Chris!
That was an attempt at not having to make people sign up and make it super low friction. So an option to sign up for a different account is preferable? Also curious as to your reason for not liking that?
Low friction sign ups that require just an email address and pw are preferable to me. I use disposable emails unique to each site and besides remembering passwords, I don't worry if one site gets hacked because they won't have access to any others.
