dabbleBOARD



Thanks to Zohair (www.dabbleboard.com) for introducing to me his excellent online application, the dabbleBOARD. While on the search for a useful online collaborative shared space, dabbleBOARD will go into my arsenal of useful tools. 

dabbleBOARD is already packed with useful collaborative features even in BETA. For example, you can create shapes easily using your tablet's stylus, draw free hand and sharing is as simple as copying an unique web adress and pasting this into your friend's browser. 

Check out the side bar on the left, this area allows your SAVE your sketches and if you have diligently named your work, you can SEARCH them easily by typing in the search box. I like this type of search filter where the search engine starts to filter after you type individual characters. 


Check this out, the teacher can prepare multiple worksheets and save them to the side bar. During lesson, double click to call out the slide, copy and send the share link to a selected group of students for instant group work. 

Zohair mentioned VoIP for his dabbleBOARD soon, so we will be watching this space.
