Review of skrbl
skrbl is online whiteboard to share ideas with friends.


Reliability
1. Does this application make it clear who posts the information?
2. Does anyone besides the creator of the site have the power to change the information you can access?
3. How can you tell if this information is correct?
4. Does the information on the website relate to other websites or print resources about the same topic?
5. Is the website up to date?


First, The characteristic of this service is that guests (person who is not signed in to this service) can edit board freely.
So it is difficult to find who have written the information. To make one's whiteboard more reliable, a user should use
password system to shut out unknown guest and tell the password to his/her friends. Second, every guest can edit the board
as well as a user (only the user can erase the written information at once, however). Then, the user should save information
before someone erase it. Publish button can save the contents including hand-written lines as a HTML file. So the
information on the board is changeable but the user can keep a copy of it. Third, skrbl is suitable for group working such as
brainstorming. When someone post wrong information, anyone can correct it. Fourth, since this service does not support
hyper link, users cannot link from skrbl to some related information. This can be a problem of skrbl. Finally, the contents of board is
saved automatically, it should be up to date.
