I had the chance to use EtherPad as part of a job interview while it was in private beta. It was supposed to use Skype and EtherPad to get the full effect. Skype broke, but EtherPad worked great. The ease of getting code to the interviewer, and (I imagine) the ability to see the way I wrote the code were really helpful.
If you're doing a phone screen interview in the future, I highly recommend using EtherPad.

- terpua 18y agoWow, great use case. I wonder if EtherPad can focus on such a niche and charge for it (with other relevant features).
- ruddzw 18y agoThey actually know about the use case: it's one of their 5 suggested use cases: http://etherpad.com/ep/about/product#uses5 http://etherpad.com/ep/about/product#uses5 But you're right, marketing specifically to software shops could be a good way to make a profit.
