Looks really cool, but I was wondering if you could address a point with the pricing. In that context what does an "asset" mean? An editable area on a webpage?

#33Interesting. Though of course you can just use my http://createjs.org/ and get pretty much the same thing for free :-)
Your site fails to load almost completely past the homepage, when I try to use your demo I get quite of a bit of resources 504ing.
Pretty sure it's getting overloaded with traffic, because it wasn't like that a few hours ago.

#34Ohhhh, nice! This is sick, I could see using this as a way better CopyCopter replacement.
Cofounder here, we did find some inspiration in CopyCopter.

#35Just one small feedback as a designer, if you want to see more conversions for sign-ups, convert that black sign-up button into green. Other than that, it's perfect!
Cofounder here, thanks for your feedback, great suggestion.

Yes, basically each asset (we're trying to say 'Copybar element') is one editable chunk. It could be one paragraph or picture, or it could be all custom HTML.
Also, something interesting: you can use the same element across many different pages. It will repeat the same content, but still count as only 1 element.

#37I think this is the beginning of the end for Facebook. Let me explain ... Like AOL, Facebook is a walled garden reproducing what is standard and open on the web/internet as a whole. AOL had AOL email, Facebook has html homepages, and RSS/ATOM But "people" cannot create their own content - they cannot write HTML, host web pages etc. But contenteditable fixes all that - and with the clever Dropbox tie in, anyone can st…
Let me get this straight -- my grandma has to get a Dropbox (what's that?), download a templated page, fill it her own images, and then figure out how to publish it? Also, there are a lot easier ways out there to publish your own content online (Weebly, Tumblr, etc) but that doesn't seem to have stopped Facebook.
Dear sweet "Grams" is only on Facebook because that's where her grandchildren hang out. If they leave, do you think she's going to stick around? Doubt it.

#39Glad to see that contenteditable-type editors are becoming more viable. Looks like Copybar uses Redactor, but I'm hoping bergie's http://hallojs.org/ gets a lot more traction since it's the only one that's MIT licensed.
The good thing about Hallo is, besides licensing and easy plugin development, the fact that it uses plain, unstyled contentEditables, so the stuff you're editing looks exactly like it will look on the real page. I integrated Redactor as another editor option in Create.js a while back, but it looks a bit strange because it changes the styling of the currently active content area. Other than that it is very simple and…
Bergie's halloJS is awesome!
Would be great to see some keyboard support in the future however. eg Super-B/ctrl-b for bold. Haven't tested on Windows, but OS X is lacking working functionality in the latest build

Love it! Now a quick question, is there any way to allow for editable blocks to be re-arranged via some form of drag and drop interface?
Or is there anyone out there that knows of a library that could possibly do this?
