(Los Angeles, California), July 17, 2008 – Twiddla (www.twiddla.com), a free, no-setup online collaboration tool, announced today the launch of several key new features at the Los Angeles based Twiistup event (www.twiistup.com). Twiddla was one of 11 companies invited to “show off” to a sold-out audience of technology-, media- and entertainment-types at the annual Los Angeles event.
Twiddla is a web-based platform that helps distributed teams meet virtually and collaborate in real time by providing tools to create mark-ups of live Web sites, uploaded images and documents, or a blank canvas. In addition to an advanced chat feature, Twiddla offers an opportunity for collaborators to speak with one another via PhoneFromHere.com (www.phonefromhere.com).
“We are very excited to be sharing our new features, which were developed in response to user requests and which we think will enhance the experience of Twiddla significantly,” said Benjamin Satterfield, Co-founder and CEO of Twiddla. “With the new version of Twiddla you can upload, share and mark up documents, emails, and even widgets, including Google Maps and YouTube videos. You have greater control of the parameters of your meeting room, you can track the history of your session through our improved chat function, and we have incorporated the standard hot keys to make Twiddla even easier and more familiar to use.”
“With factors like the increasing number of geographically-dispersed teams and the high cost of gas, the need for easy and effective online collaboration tools has never been greater. Twiddla is the solution for anyone who wants to meet and collaborate online without enlisting a tech support team or needing a big corporate budget,” said Satterfield. “It’s painless, it’s easy, it’s fun, and it’s free.”
