"Goodbye Jot, Hello Backpack"

“I’ve been using a JotSpot wiki for a while now, to keep track of various projects, to-dos, articles to read, etc., but recently moved everything to Backpack to give it a go. Though I adore wikis, for me Backpack’s speedy ajax (read: inline editing) won over JotSpot’s feature-richness. Editing a page in JotSpot just took way too long, because you’ve gotta load the whole javascript wysiwyg thing just to do simple editing.” -Eric Case
