(Re?)Introducing LineloNet

Over the past couple of months our focus has been on developing the ability to easily publish Linelo documents. You can see an example of this in the page we put together to track the schedule and results for the Canada winter Olympic team in Sochi. You can see it here: http://linelo.net/public/sochican.

We're not going for anything particularly fancy here - we just want a very easy to use way of publishing information on the web. In fact we see LineloNet as kind of a middle group between Twitter on the one hand, which is extremely simple but a little TOO simple and ephemeral for many applications, and full-blown websites which are a lot of work to maintain.

It will be possible to edit these pages using Linelo on your mobile device. There is already a Linelo button that allows you to sync to the cloud; we'll simply add a Publish button that works the same way. Edit your document, click "Publish" and Voila! your content is up to date for everyone to see on the web. We even take care of notifying Google that your page is there and needs to be indexed, just like any other webpage.

But the real power tool for editing these documents is LineloWin. Here's a screenshot...

As you can expect would expect of a desktop application, it has a ton of power features that make it easy to build up and manage massive documents very easily, including import tools that can pull data in  from a variety of different sources. Right now LineloWin is in Alpha mode, but you are free to give it a try if you're interested. You can find it here: http://linelo.net/Products/Linelo/LineloWin/publish.htm. As we said though, it is still in Alpha, don't be surprised if you find a few issues with it.
