Designer of EtherPad here. I'm a big fan of HackPad and I encourage people to give it a shot. I get a lot of questions about the best version of EtherPad out there, and HackPad is the one I recommend.
It might not look that different, but they handle similar features in smart ways.
- timc3 15y agoWould be interesting to know which features?
- kofman 15y agoSome of hackpad's features are: task-lists, inline linking and page creation, simple image embedding, search, deep email integration, dropbox integration, mobile (iphone,android) support, an osx launcher/search app. The way hackpad handles basic editing and authorship annotation has also received a lot of attention and iteration. Play with it and let us know what you think!
- ilaksh 15y agoInline linking and page creation, image embedding, and search are plugins that are part of the etherpad source and just need to be enabled. When you say it supports iPhone, does that mean you somehow made the contentEditable issue go away and can edit on iPhone, or is it just read-only support?
- kofman 15y agoiPhone support is currently in beta. Basic editing works but it's fairly easy to break.
- skrebbel 15y agoHm, given that Hackpad is based on Etherpad, wouldn't some credits be due?

- unicornporn 15y agoI think a hackers pad should really have a <code>-button (monospaced font). Otherwise, great tool.
