Hello, We launched Writeboard back in October of 2005 as a stand-alone service. A few years later we integrated Writeboards into Basecamp Classic and Backpack. Today, the vast majority of Writeboards are created inside those two products. As part of refocusing on Basecamp, we’ve decided to retire Writeboard.com. You’ll still be able to create Writeboards inside Basecamp Classic and Backpack, but you’ll no longer be able to start new stand-alone Writeboards here at Writeboard.com. But don’t worry — any Writeboards you already created here at Writeboard.com will continue to work.

Thanks to everyone who used Writeboard.com over the years. Onwards, Jason Fried, Founder & CEO, Basecamp. Free Online Idea Management and Collaboration Service | Wridea.com.

I recently made an exception to my "must be real" rule. Eric Oliver sent a boat-load of funny names, and they're in a group farther down the page. Also see my People I'd Like to Know page and my Smileys collection. Funny Names Adam Baum Adam Zapel Al Bino Al Dente Al Fresco Al K.
