I came across this interesting service called Etherpad that allows people to collaborate on text files. They appear to have geared it toward javascript developers because the options list Javascript syntax highlighting.

I had trouble today where my control keys quite working. It is the first time it has happened, and I haven’t the problem again since. I found the solution here, and I plan to keep it handy just in case.

So, thanks Dominique for writing this game. We enjoy it!
