ShareBoard is a software experiment I began in multi-level collaboration. The software is a simple utility I wrote as a Konfabulator widget that allows a work team member to post a short message to be displayed simultaneously on all workteam computer desktops. The goal is to enable a creative group to collaborate and contribute simultaneously on (at least) three fronts:
1. Submit content to be shared
2. Submit feature requests as part of an integrated request forum
3. Submit code candidates as part of an integrated opensource project for the widget itself.

The primary goal of the project is to see how an overtly simple tool may inspire contributions on different fronts. After collecting initial feedback, I was inspired to make comments on complexity.

Stay tuned for version updates and more commentary from our learnings.
