Catch of the Day - TitanPad and Sync.in - 3 May 10

Today's catch turned up two more EtherPad successors, TitanPad and Sync.in

TitanPad

TitanPad
was launched by a team of IT professionals based in Austria to provide an EtherPad clone unrelated to any commercial and political entities. Its goal is to offer a stable service. If demand is sufficient, this team plans to formalize the operation with backing by a non-profit association.




Sync.in

Sync.in
is another clone of EtherPad but with a few additional features that make it perhaps the most attractive alternative to date: a desktop launcher and a paid Pro account.


The desktop launcher (for Windows, Mac, and Linux) lets you create new notes from your desktop and quickly open notes by typing their IDs into the smartbar. Additionally, with a Pro account, you can list all of your individual and team notes and quickly search and filter your notes.

A Sync.in Pro account offers several useful features including ...
  • Listing notes and tracking activity
  • Private renameable notes
  • Public notes
  • Password protecting notes
  • Managing, searching, and exporting notes

Sync.in Pro costs $2/user/month with a minimum of 5 users. You can add and remove users as needed. Unlimited external users can be invited to collaborate on a note. You can get up and running with your Sync.in Pro site immediately with a 30-day free trial.

Both of these services depend on the Etherpad open source code for existence yet neither contribute back to the project. Take from that what you will.
