Abstract

GravPad is the next major step in the evolution of the EtherPad, a real-time collaborative editor that was first developed at AppJet, Inc. (http://appjet.com/) and recently open-sourced when AppJet was acquired by Google. EtherPad's developer community, headed up by Egil Möller and John McLear, has made a plugin engine and added standard wiki features to the editor (http://github.com/ether/pad). My GravPad demonstration will show a hacked EtherPad running in a "sidewiki" format -- the basis of a platform for live web annotation and content discovery.
