@bentossell what a time to be alive

@bentossell Rather incredible that we stagger the generation of the overhead slide projector, and the jamboard. Do you remember drawing on the plastic transparent sheets for those things?

Pixel, Home, Daydream View, Chromecast, Wifi, Jamboard... Google is now a hardware company.

@jackdweck I believe you forgot Glass, Cars, and Switches (they are custom to handle their bandwidth reqs).

May I borrow $6k from someone. Our distributed team needs this. 🙏🏼

This simple design with wheels actually solves a really big problem. 👏

@nivo0o0 Not sure. I usually encounter dedicated rooms with huge walls painted with whiteboard paint to scribble on, which are also designed to be noise-shielded. Reminds me more of the old days: "Hey, who gets the TV cabinet with the DVD player out of 223?" followed by "Where is the TV?" "It's been in 223" "No, not anymore" "Who rolled the TV out of 223?" "I think Lisa used it last week for her presentation" "Where is Lisa?". :D

@nivo0o0 It seems that the wheels and especially those legs can be really annoying to use and draw or write on the blackboard.. hanging on the wall seems feasible.
Josh Davis
Agreed. Also - sadly from experience - it makes it easier for other teams to knick your screen while you aren't looking... @ivarsmas @nivo0o0

Is that just me or the name Jamboard remind you of Jeremy Jamm from Park and Recreation :)

@rotemthegolfer You could actually put the Gif on the JamBoard

@tsunaze Yeah, now just the *easy* part of teaming up with Google and making them integrate Guggy into the JamBoard :)

Whoa- I loved the concept behind the MS Surface Hub, but never really saw the vision realized. This is way more compelling, so if Google can pull this off AND make it affordable, this is a slam dunk! Remember when Google stuff was ugly but functional? Times have changed!

I am officially old! This was way more exciting than the new Nintendo!

There are tons of HW to do this job now. What I am looking forward to is the app. There is no fully functional realtime whiteboar in @Gsuite or anywhere else yet AFIK.

@anupchathoth @gsuite This. Cool hardware aside, if Google introduce a decent collaboration tool for distributed teams that integrates with the rest of their tools that would way more exciting than any number of wheels.

@levibostian so true, touchscreen/whiteboard part is amazing but if video conferencing doesn't catch up then this loses its biggest draw

Prediction: Every coworking space worth it's salt will have a Jamboard in at least one conference room by the end of 2017.

Looks like smart board has new competition.
Niv Dror
This is so cool. @rrhoover @Corleyh can we get oneeeeee
Shaan Puri
I'll spend all my bat mitzvah money on this

In my perspective, It's going to be a really useful tool for teams (especially big teams) and also it will make the meetings a little bit more fun.

Want...

The first new Google product in recent years, I really want to try.

Wow, so many collaboration whiteboard companies are going down.

The date on this page (article) says Oct 26th 😯 Did they also figure out Time Travel. Is this where everything's coming from!!!

Very SMART
