I loved Etherpad! When I joined a startup back in 2009, I pushed hard for the team to keep our information together in Google Docs, but one of our non-technical leaders stumbled upon Etherpad and after trying to tear him away from it I finally came around and realized how incredibly beautifully simple and useful it was.
We were all working remotely, and we'd hop on the phone together and gather around an Etherpad and it was so easy to tell what everyone was doing (as opposed to Google Docs which had a major delay in updating the screen at that time). I'm glad to see that it lives on at hackpad and PiratePad.
