Introducing the Jot Developer Connection

Filed under: — Scott McMullan @ 10:13 am

Last week we unveiled the new Jot Developer Connection site over at developer.jot.com. I posted an overview on the developer blog, but wanted to cross-post a slice here.

What’s the Jot Developer Connection?

We created the Jot Developer Connection (JDC) because… that’s what the big kids do. No seriously, we’ve got one basic goal with the Jot Developer Connection:

Quickly connect folks with the info they need to customize and extend JotSpot.

With that goal in mind, we’ve put a stake in the ground and kicked things off with some basics:

  1. Latest Stuff for Free: Get free hosted JotSpot developer wikis, including early-access to developer releases
  2. Tinkerable Home: We’re hanging out in a JotSpot that’s open to guests, and fully writable by members
  3. Bunch of Facts: The site hosts all of our developer documentation, tutorials, and other how-to and reference information
  4. Place to Discuss & Share: Yes, we’ve got Forums. Got a code snippet blog too

So the JDC is for existing users looking to customize their JotSpot. It’s also for folks new to Jot. Anyone interested in a better way to collaborate and share using the web. I think of developing with Jot as a “special orders don’t upset us” experience, and I personally hope to show you what I mean by this.
