Almost perfect! The only thing missing (for me) is the ability to edit in one part of the document at the same time as someone else edits a different part of the document, (similar to how firepad.io works). With that addition it would be just wonderful! Any chance you'll be adding this source code to GitHub?

I will definitely. Needs some clean up first.

Cheers, looking forward to it. Stellar job so far, simple but polished.

Interesting. We're finally back to the 1990's BBS days, with real-time sysop chat. I never understood why AIM and other chat messengers removed real-time typing when we always had that with the BBSes. I suppose it was due to latency or flow (you type a sentence hit enter, I type a sentence hit enter), but in 2013, you would think most chat systems would allow character by character typing by now. You can tell a lot from a person by how they type: slow typing, frequent misspellings, interrupting the other user, etc, and can convey more information.

They removed it because people don't like it. Every chat system out there has had it at one point or another. As it turns out, people don't like their mistakes broadcast to the person they are chatting with.

Another addition that would be nice to have and informative: a small badge or counter with the number of people currently editing the document? Not sure if that's easily done or more trouble than it's worth!

Can anyone explain how this works?I opened the URL in two different browsers and it works fine but I don't see any data in Fiddler.

You should see a code editor, that looks like Sublime, that you can write or paste code into. What browser are you using?

I like it, good thinking
