Enter the embed code of some online media, then click "Insert!". The allowable embed codes are Drop.io image, Disqus, Dailymotion, SlideShare, Drop.io document, YouTube, Google Calendar, Viddler, Drop.io audio, Seesmic, Ustream.TV Recorded, Tipjoy, Vimeo, Revision 3, Hulu, Blip.TV, Drop.io video, Twitter, Digg, Ustream.TV Live, Drop.io upload widget, and MotionBox

Insert!

Edit or add to the raw HTML for the note below, and then click "Update!". For a list of all tags and attributes allowed in the HTML of your note, click the information icon on the note editor toolbar below.

Update!

With this editor you can create notes for your drop with rich text formatting as well as certain embedded media.

In order to create a note, start typing in the large text box of the editor. The formatting buttons available to you below the textbox are, in order: .

In order to use the majority of these, first highlight the text you would like formatted, then click the button to apply the formatting. In some cases, such as when adding a link, in addition to highlighting text and then pushing the button, you will also be prompted to enter some additional information (in this case the URL). In yet other cases, such as when embedding media or editing the note's HTML, you do not need to highlight any text first, but rather simply enter the information (in these cases, the embed code or some HTML) for which you will be prompted after pushing the button.

The Embed function mentioned aboved is one of the most powerful things you can do with this editor. In order to insert say, a Vimeo or YouTube video into your note, first find and copy the embed code for the media in which you are interested from the site on which you found it. Then, click the Embed button. A dialog box will slide open above the note's toolbar with a textbox in the center. Paste the embed code into this box and then click "Insert!" Note that the media itself will not appear in the editor window quite yet -- instead, a placeholder will be put there for now. Once you save your note and view it from your drop, the actual media will then appear.

The only allowable embedded media types are: Drop.io image, Disqus, Dailymotion, SlideShare, Drop.io document, YouTube, Google Calendar, Viddler, Drop.io audio, Seesmic, Ustream.TV Recorded, Tipjoy, Vimeo, Revision 3, Hulu, Blip.TV, Drop.io video, Twitter, Digg, Ustream.TV Live, Drop.io upload widget, and MotionBox.

Another powerful feature of the editor is the HTML Source Editor, which allows you have greater control over the formatting of your note. When you push the HTML button it will open up a dialog containing the HTML source code for your note. You can them manually add, edit, and remove HTML tags to markup your text.

The only allowable HTML tags are: u, strong, em, b, i, p, code, pre, tt, output, samp, kbd, var, sub, sup, strike, font, dfn, cite, big, small, address, hr, br, div, span, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, ul, ol, li, dt, dd, abbr, acronym, a, img, blockquote, del, ins, fieldset, and legend. And the only allowable attributes for those tags are: href, src, width, height, alt, cite, datetime, title, class, id, style, size, and color. All other tags and attributes will be stripped out before being saved.

Finally, if you are typing a very long note and would like to see more of it at a time, you can click and drag the bottom right corner of the editor to resize it.

What does "streaming" mean in drop.io World?

With the drop.io Real Time set of features, we've created a fully-live collaboration environment.

This means zero page refreshes. Zero...seriously.

Our new /Chat dedicated view: just as each drop has a '/Blog' view (where media added to the drop is displayed according to when it is uploaded), a '/Media' view, etc. we also now provide a rich media '/Chat' view. In this chat view all chat messages and media are displayed 'inline' for easy discussion

A 'chat layer' on every view: on the bottom of every page there is also now a 'chat layer', which displays how many others are currently looking at the same drop. Click on it and you can chat with them about the files you are uploading, a document you need from them, whatever you want.

The /Chat Mobile view: we have created a browser-based mobile chat view, so that iPhone and G1 users, and others with handsets that support javascript, can not only send live chat messages, but can also receive rich media added to the drop on their device. All a mobile user needs to do to access this functionality is navigate to http://drop.io/DROPNAME/chat and they are immediately brought into the real-time environment.

3rd Party Chat support: you can even use 3rd party chat clients (like Adium, Pigdin, iChat, etc) to collaborate on drop.io drops, and with others viewing the drop directly from their browser.

Still Supports All drop.io 'Inputs': We're the same drop.io, just faster and more agile. This new level of functionality maintains full support across all of drop.io's 'inputs'. If you email a file to your drop, it appears on-the-fly. If you call in voicemail to the drop's dedicated number, the MP3 manifests instantly. Using our popular drag and drop.io firefox plugin you can drag files off your desktop for realtime sharing. It even works with API applications built by others, like the iphone app 'Droppler' and the windows desktop app Affixa.

Still Supports All drop.io 'Outputs': Like with the ways you can get your content and ideas up on drop.io, all of the ways to get this content out to your friends, workgroup or the world-at-large are still supported and just as easy to use. Email out your images or documents, send out a fax (premium-only) and update your Facebook or Twitter feed. Go crazy.

So, we've tried again to make drop.io a better, more feature rich space to collaborate and share your content, easily and privately. We hope you like what we've put together and where we're going. We also hope you'd tell us what you think, what works, what could be better, etc. E-mail us at contact+streaming@dropio.com and let us know.
