Yay! Now we can do remote pair-programming totally within our internal network (the IT Policy goons are quite unhappy when it comes to using cloud-based services).

#52Thanks to The Google & The Etherpads! I fully expect to see 30 different sites offering this now, and HN to be full of links to them tomorrow.
For those of us who have been working on side-project competitors for a few months this is a worrying prediction, and quite probably correct. Can HN name any niches that they feel should be filled with a similar product?
Keep an eye out for Etherpad support inside of Twiddla. We've been looking at ways to fill that void ever since they created it.
I'll post here if & when it's ready to go.

remote pair-programming
Doesn't that defeat the supposed purpose of pair-programming?

Pair programming in EtherPad? Yikes. I really like EtherPad, but I don't code in Notepad, either.

> the supposed purpose
Which is?
I think with shared input, shared editing buffers and a voice communication channel you're pretty much there.

#57I have my last final today. This comes as a perfect school-is-over-and-i-can-start-hacking-again gift! I'm hoping to be able to integrate LaTeX export into this so I can collaborate on LaTeX reports without having to download and build manually.
I would be happy to test it - pls let me know.

Ah, if there's voice communication, then yes. Voice comm is important.

#60I just took a quick look around, but is all of the server-side code down in JS as well?
