We all covet our precious beta invites and share them on Twitter, but say you’re still not able to get an invite. Join the queue with InviteShare. I gave out my useless Pownce and ImInLikeWithYou invites and perused the list of sites in beta. I finally settled on Stixy, which I will get to in a minute. I added my name to the list of people seeking invites. Within an hour, I had an email announcing that I had been invited! Oh happy, joyous day!

With that, I cruised over to Stixy, which is an online collaboration site. Sure, that’s what Pownce is, but not in the way that Stixy is. Only one person technically needs to make an account in order for everyone to participate, should they choose to make their whiteboard public. For the project-minded, you can create notes, add photos, add movies and documents, like Word, Excel, and PDF files, and even make a to-do list that reminds you! I tested it out with my Twitter buddies and it works pretty well.

Yeah, you could use a site like Basecamp, but is it as cool as this? Nope! It’s so visual and really lends to creativity. I see myself using it to create storyboards for machinima, adding pictures, ideas, and notes about what works and what doesn’t in a scene. There’s plenty of space to do this as well. I’m not even going to speculate on the size of the stixyboard, as they call it, but it’s huge. If you’d like to test out this site, head on over to my public board and try it out. I’m sure you’ll love it. As for an invite to it, please sign up for InviteShare as mentioned in the first paragraph. That’s how I did it!
