ScribbleLive Launches

Congrats to Jonathan and team for leaving alpha and entering beta with the launch of ScribbleLive, a very sweet live-blogging tool that’s getting its beta-inaugural test drive at the Mesh Conference in Toronto.

You know how people are using Twitter to comment in real-time during conferences? ScribbleLive is like that without the lousy character limitation, the short attention span, the need to refresh the page or the server outages. And a bit more.

Very nice indeed and the site looks great too. Well done guys!

Update
Momentum seems to be picking up for Jonathan and Michael with ScribbleLive: Two Guys In Canada Launch Sweet Liveblogging Platform on TechCrunch cross-posted to the Washington Post.

Note that in the TechCrunch article Erick laments:

This is something I would want to use for liveblogging events, if only they offered an embeddable widget that I could put directly into a TechCrunch post. Right now, the posts exist on ScribbleLive’s Website.

According to Jonathan this embeddable functionality already exists.
