Any demo sites, videos, or screen shots?

I've just recorded a short 3 minute screencast showing an install and demo of Collide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gq12bLbm54 - to just see what it looks like in action, jump to 1:45. (Please note, I have no special connection to the project.. just saw it here this evening, installed it, and poked around slightly ;-))

Hey, screencast looks good.

what tool do you use for recording screencasts & for onscreen text?

Great little screencast - thanks for that!

/me reads features... Awesome! /me reads Java 7 requirement... Sadness.

We decided to have a little fun with the open sourcing and play with some cool new open source tech for a change :). I settled on vert.x (the server container that requires Java 7) because it seemed to have a lot of affordances out of the box for client-server transport, and it's architecture made it easy to port/re-build pieces of our server stack. But yeah, Java7 on Mac is a pita :(.

Isn't vert.x a little bit "young" for Google to use?

I'm pretty excited about the new wave of IDE's in the browser: Cloud9, Eclipse Orion, and Collide. Just having them available, with my last setup, from any computer with an internet connection and a browser makes my life easier. Collide looks like it's using one of the internet's big plusses: collaboration. Kudos and keep going. EDIT: grammar
