Innovative Backboard uses
Since the public Backboard launch, we’ve heard from many users with kudos, feature requests, and even the occasional bug (now fixed). I thought I’d share some of the more interesting uses we’ve stumbled upon:
Education - In Larry Ferlazzo’s education blog, he posts about utilizing Backboard for a simple assignment for ESL learners. They could find a picture, write about it, and others could give their feedback. For more, take a look at Larry’s Blog.
Flight Simulators - Participants at Flight Simulation Forums are using Backboard to get feedback on screenshots from their best flights.
Designophiles - Here at Increo, we’re passionate about good design and user experience. We were quite honored to find Backboard at CSS 2.0, a site that features well-designed websites as inspiration for the web design community.
Web Designers - We built Backboard to be very useful for designers seeking feedback from teams and clients. I’m happy to report that several Backboard users have posted links to Backboards requesting feedback on their own web designs.
Note: We discovered these uses posted on your blogs and forums. Tell us how you’re using Backboard.
