Tech Tidbits video: Twiddla

Twiddla is an free, open-source online whiteboard tool that allows multiple users to view and edit the same whiteboard screen simultaneously.  When you create a new whiteboard screen, it generates a unique URL address that can be shared with others via an e-vite from the site, or one you can post on a website or in an e-mail, etc.  Users can draw with drawing tools, insert shapes, and add text as with other online whiteboard tools. You can also screenshare documents or pictures that are uploaded for others to view and annotate.




Users can also share websites via their Twiddla whiteboard so they can be viewed at the same time, and they can be clicked on, drawn upon, and more. 
While teachers can use LanSchools to share their screens with their students, it doesn't allow other users to click on links via their screens when a site is shared.  This site could be used as a collaborative technology tool for group projects and more.  If you would like to learn more about how Twiddla works, watch the video below.
