Gottabemobile adds ink messaging capabilities to their forums

Just spotted that the Gottabemobile forums now accept ink (aka handwriting) as another way to leave or reply to messages on their forum. The use of ink on tablet computers is a key benefit of the devices and some swear by it as a faster way to take notes. I quickly tried the GBM forums and the ink ability is cool save for two things (a) People write sloppy making some messages tough to read and (B) I don’t think I was able to search through the inked notes – a KEY benefit of having a forum. Looks like a great start. This will make participation in the forum much easier for those committed to tables and ink as their primary data input method. Update: My Bad – All the ink messages in the forum DO get transcribed and are fully searchable. Very cool!
