ScribbleLive: Liveblogging doesn't get much easier
ScribbleLive is a new liveblogging platform that's incredibly easy to use. You can create a blog and start updating it within seconds. That's because you don't even need to sign up for an account. you can login using OpenID or your Facebook or Windows Live login. On the other had, we didn't see a way to use the site if you're not already signed up with one of those three services, so you might need to register an OpenID URL, which could take a few minutes.
Once your up and running all you have to do to liveblog an event like a political speech, TV show, or concert. hit the save post button and your readers will be able to see your latest post. You can sort entries so they display from oldest to newest or vice versa. And you can invite others to contribute to the blog with you by sharing a URL.
The only problem with the service is there's no way to embed a liveblog on your own site or to set up a custom domain. But according to TechCrunch, an embeddable widget is coming soon. And when that happens, ScribbleLive could give CoverItLive, a service we've used in the past, a run for its money.
