Concurrency problems and formatting errors make this list very hard to use IMO. At the moment, the formatting is completely broken.

I have made a password-protected Google Doc spreadsheet. I think it's a better choice than Writeboard since it supports multiple users and there's no risk of breaking somebody else's entry.

Here's the link:

Let me know if you think this is a good idea or not.



Er, whose idea was it to write: "Hey Startups in private beta: Want some awesome beta-testers? Invite some emails in the list below!"

I don't recall consenting to anyone using my email address to spam me about their website...

EDIT: It's gone now.


yeah that shocked me a bit. that's why I created the whiteboard and wanted to admin it a bit - but I guess the crowd has policed it now :)

i've also added a note to the whiteboard about adding/using e-mail addresses.


Certainly is.

EDIT: Imagine if there was a sharing option where each new person could only edit one new row. They can't edit the headers or alter the arrangement, but they have a saved, protected slot.


Isn't that just Google forms? You submit the form and then it pushes it into a spreadsheet.


I'm trying to catch up copying the info from the original document. If you already entered your information in Writeboard, I'd appreciate if you could help me and copy it to the new spreadsheet.

Thanks!


Much better.


Done. See you all there.* Thanks, Cmer *Looking for a ride from/to Boston.
