EDITOR NOTES
Requires a free license key for the 30-day trial period.
DESCRIPTION
NoteShare is a powerful desktop application for creating, publishing and sharing media rich, multi-page notebooks. Users can instantly share their notebooks with other NoteShare users for presenting, viewing and editing information. NoteShare can be used in the same room, same building and globally for connecting anytime, anywhere.

Sharing means that the information in a shared notebook can be viewed, edited and modified by other NoteShare users. Any NoteShare user can share a notebook from their own personal computer and allow other NoteShare users to access, view and edit it. With NoteShare, you don't need to use a third party hosting service or server, just two or more users to start sharing and working on the same notebook.

NoteShare is an ideal collaboration tool for users who work on team projects or have a need to share notebook information with one or more users in a small group or classroom. NoteShare serves a growing, dynamic community of users including students, educators, researchers, scientists, doctors, designers, authors, directors, producers, consultants and many other creative fields.

NoteShare allows multiple users to work on a single shared, interactive notebook from the same room, same building or even from a remote location via the Internet or a network gateway. NoteShare enables home and small office users to work on their notebooks remotely while away or in a different location than from where the notebooks are being shared. Presenting, viewing and editing a shared notebook can be done on-demand as needed. Any NoteShare user can view other shared notebooks as well as share their own notebooks.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.7:
  • NoteShare can now automatically generate RSS 2.0 feeds covering the recent changes to a page, section, or entire notebook.
  • A new Sharing menu item, "RSS...", displays a sheet that allows a feed to be activated for the current notebook or page, and the name of the feed to be customized.
  • Users connected to a remote notebook being shared by NoteShare Server can also access the "RSS..." menu item, after supplying the administrator password.
  • The interface for generating Web Notebooks has been changed to parallel that for RSS.
  • A new Sharing menu item, "Web Notebook...", displays a sheet that allows a automatically-updated Web Notebook to be activated for the current notebook, and the name of the web notebook to be customized. (You will need to re-enable automatic updating for web notebooks created using an earlier version of NoteShare).
  • Users connected to a remote notebook being shared by NoteShare Server can also access the "Web Notebook..." menu item, after supplying the administrator password.
  • A new Preferences tab called "Web" allows the specification of web server, RSS, and web notebook locations, and global Web Notebook options.
  • See the updated "NoteShare User's Guide" for more details.
  • The Preferences panel has been modified to use a standard OS X toolbar using buttons with icons and labels.
  • The "Copy Page URL" and "Copy Entry URL" commands now include HTML and RTF representations on the pasteboard, with the notebook name as the text for the link.
  • NoteShare Server may now be run from two different accounts on the same computer, if they are set to different sharing ports. Each instance may then have different Server Settings and different sets of managed notebooks. (requires a separate license for each instance of NoteShare Server).

TOMEM  Peer to peer networking is ok for those who are happy with it, but this isn't what the internet was designed for. It would seem much more powerful and valuable to me if the notebooks were saved into a network viewable and editable format on a plain vanilla FTP or WebDAV site like .Mac. Sure that takes a machine that is continuously online, but otherwise notebook sharing has to be synchronous, which is not going to work very well.

For comparison, check out Projectforum.com, which has a simple but easy-to-use solution for a collaborative server.   (Version 1.1)
