How is it different from EtherPad and hundreds of its clones/instances?
Designer of EtherPad here. I'm a big fan of HackPad and I encourage people to give it a shot. I get a lot of questions about the best version of EtherPad out there, and HackPad is the one I recommend. It might not look that different, but they handle similar features in smart ways.

Lots of people here seem to dislike Confluence and Jira. What do you folks prefer? Having used Bugzilla, Trac, Mantis, MediaWiki, and several other tools I 100% prefer Jira and Confluence...
Redmine here. Currently loving it. Tried lots of others but the multiple projects and the fact that I could use plugins helps. BaseCamp was by far the worst for me.

Would be interesting to know which features?

Some of hackpad's features are: task-lists, inline linking and page creation, simple image embedding, search, deep email integration, dropbox integration, mobile (iphone,android) support, an osx launcher/search app. The way hackpad handles basic editing and authorship annotation has also received a lot of attention and iteration. Play with it and let us know what you think!
When you say it supports iPhone, does that mean you somehow made the contentEditable issue go away and can edit on iPhone, or is it just read-only support?

Inline linking and page creation, image embedding, and search are plugins that are part of the etherpad source and just need to be enabled. When you say it supports iPhone, does that mean you somehow made the contentEditable issue go away and can edit on iPhone, or is it just read-only support?
Unfortunate that they don't offer the software itself; I could use this at work, but I don't think we'd be allowed to use it on an external server.
I'm also a frequent complainer about exactly this sort of thing. Maybe there is some space in the market for a B2B company which could package up software like this for deployment within the firewalls of the ultimate customer...
It looks neat. Why does it want access to my google contacts?
It's nice. But how do I delete my account and my Google contacts that were imported in your database?
