Several value-add concepts are married in this nascent application.
- your train of thought remains visible after large entries by others
- split size maintenance through window resize
- quick identification of other user without consuming screen real estate
- rapid independent local scrolling of each participants messages
- watch what your colleague is typing as they are typing it
- be prepared to respond to inquiries more quickly
- have faster and more complete communication
- support for scientific communication/visualization
- be able to organize ideas much like mediawiki (wikipedia)
- use graphing, charting, equations, HTML5, and much much more
- swap back and forth between markup and rendering with a single keystroke
- special markup for checklists (progress tracking)
- more than two participants
- high security methods to maintain privacy, auditability, non-repudiability
- sandboxing of security risks such as external calls to programs
