I use HackPad and really love it. Some things can still be improved, particularly around knowing what functionality is available. But overall this is super useful and i love the simplicity.

Founders, any new features you're planning on rolling out soon?

We just rolled out code highlighting and (very alpha) inline LaTeX support! Learn about those here: https://hackpad.com/o9ey5hjlyBQ#Hackpad-Code-Syntax-Hilighti... and here: https://hackpad.com/gcErGj2WsQr#Embedded-LaTeX

We use hackpad at sendhub all day, everyday. It's invaluable. I've used other wiki systems like atlassian and wiki media but this is the only that's stuck. Easy to use, updates in realtime and the founders have always been available to listen to and respond to our feedback.

We've integrated hackpad's session notes in to our unofficial session guide for SXSW: http://austin.lanyrd.com/

Looks a lot like etherpad but with a slicker UI, I already want to be able to interlink between this and Trello.

Well done Alex and crew!

Bug Report: The Mac app apparently keeps readding pads that have been unfollowed/removed.

Thanks, we'll take a look!

I was surprised to see my Google contacts in the autocomplete. I thought I'd just used it for login. I guess even I can't be trusted to read the OAuth notices. (Google should really turn theirs up a notch, but still...)
