- Working on a class gallery for the Mechanical MOOC to allow people to get a better idea of who they are in a group with
- Current version is TOO ROUGH to share :)
- Hackpad is a possible alternative to etherpad that we can use
- http://p2pu.hackpad.com
- It doesn't support anonymous access, will that be ok?
- Main concern re: anon is that people cannot drop by and just leave comments, they need to log in (either via google) or manually
- it can be viewd anonymously, but not edited anonymously.
- Worth testing for a community call
- Benefits: we don't have to run our own server for an etherpad, hopfully more stable,
- Worth getting input from people on this - okay for internal pads, for now, and maybe use google docs for community calls.
