Important to share a sketch quickly. esp with business people.

Easier: :Fax in a sketch, puts in a que, then you can link to it and print out, then you refactor ([refaxoring]) the image and refax it.

More complicated: :In wysiwig,

Design mode for browsers let you insert images.

Need:

- pencil sketch, black and white, with eraser.

: sequence of images. : How does it save it in wiki page database, special case of transclusion? :: Could be a page that is transcluded. : Does it have wysiwg? : possibly a white board.

2 -

Whiteboard with transclusion and versioning. Different namespace Easy to link

- wiki

2 - whiteboard 3 - Transclusion of whiteboard pages in wiki.

Sketch in the page rather than sketch elswhere.

Drag n drop should work. (copy or transclude?) - cut and paste.

---

What does a user of the user expect? Drop to my desktop from email fron desktop to document.

Drag and drop upload?

On what level does the versioning index. How does flickr do it?

like wikipedia - edit sections.

Power and simplicity.
