PM Tools You Can Use: Whiteboarding over Instant Messaging

November 3, 2007 – 10:33 pm

One of the challenges around virtual project management is the difficulties of visualization.  You can’t easily get everyone in a room together and hold a whiteboard session to get through a complicated idea.  You can, however, share a virtual whiteboard.

Coccinella is an IM client that includes a virtual whiteboard- and it just might be what you need at times to get everyone on the same page and brainstorm through complex problems.  Take a look!

  3. It’s an instant messaging client, like AIM or MSN messenger, only with a shared whiteboard element. You can draw a drawing on your side, and that drawing will be sent to the person that you are messaging- who can in turn add to the drawing, and you will see the results- all interactively. Pretty handy tool.
