[livejournal.com profile] howardtayler introduces a new Toy.

Howard's the creator of Schlock Mercenary, if you didn't already know that. He and his wife are also clever, prudent and frugal with money — making and spending. At least, they seem awfully good at managing it to me. Anyway, Howard vets the advertisers he accepts for display next to his comic, and will plug products, services and companies he thinks are honestly worth it. Howard's a smart guy, I'll look at stuff he speaks well of in a positive light.

Therefore, when Howard plugged Wotan LLC's product 'Kayuda' in the Schlock blog, I was eager to check it out. Remember when Writely came out? This is very probably niftier than Writely (which is now known as 'Google Docs').

I signed up on Kayuda after looking at my third sample document. Howard's apparently been using it for a while. [livejournal.com profile] shadesong (Queen of LiveJournal, as she's called sometimes, with tongues in cheeks) has a story outline shared out and looking very intriguing. Actually... it's more like a story web.

Take a look. The right side of your brain may thank you.

Sorry, can't do much about that. :/ I can't access it from work, either.

Copied from [livejournal.com profile] perldiver's comments below, because I wasn't sure you'd see it:

I'm sorry about the browser thing. We've only got two web devs, and we had to make some choices about what we were going to support. We wanted to support Safari (especially since every single one of us is a Mac user), but it's Javascript engine just isn't up to the job. Safari v3.0 is supposed to have much better support, so we'll reevaluate then. As to Opera and the various Linux browsers...well, as of 2 days ago, if it's using a Gecko core you should be able to get onto the site and it should work for you, but we don't promise. Anything other than that is very unlikely to work...we are pushing the limits of CSS and Javascript **hard**, and we figured it was better to just tell people flat out that we couldn't serve them rather than waste their time.

For our information, what browser do you want to use?
