I'll make sure to spread the word to all of the busy K-12 teachers who are eager to hear about a simple followup (they don't have too much time for training on something like this). The last I heard from Dry Erase legacy company was that in addition to Chalkboards and Forbo Tackboards, area Architects are specifying for new Schools, Lockers and Toilet Partitions have doubled the size of Dry Erase businesses. From my view though, I just want to add 3D simulations and speech technology as "plug-in" features. If this doesn't' make sense to any, the first lesson for you would be to "resurface" an old slate board (anywhere from 8 ft. x 4 ft. on up) by interning with your local Education Equipment provider.

This looks much more promising than any other wireframe/whiteboarding tools that I've tried. Adding it to my list of tools to kick around.

For those who need a simpler doodle-tool with one that supports screenshot capability you can try these two that are simple, to-the-point (i.e. not as fancy as the GE whiteboard):

Thanks for the review! Not many people realize the usefulness of the library, but I'm glad you get it. Regarding 2+ ppl editing at exactly the same time, soon we'll be implementing merging logic (a la Google Docs, but for drawings). And a clarification: when you make a drawing public, the image (PNG) does not automatically get updated until you republish the drawing.

Hmm... seems some great 'user-broker' comments on this 'media-broker' article. Well played, but then again you can also "rig" a new music contest on the radio as well.
