Channel.me → co-viewing sites

Suddenly, I had a task to choose products in the online store with my sister. It would seem simple, but my sister is 800 km away from me.

Throwing links to each other or fumbling one of the desktops, I considered ineffective. But there was a revolutionary service that is similar to Google Docs, but only for co-visiting sites - Channel.me .

Comments from the creators about the habr effect in the demo channel:

The demo-channel is a bit crowded ... Looks more like a stress test :-)

UPD-2: I don’t know why it was decided to move it from Startups to I’m Promoting.
All the same, Channel.me is a startup for people and for business. And I'm not a member of the team, not a developer, I just sent a link to the post to the guys from Channel.me and they gave comments about the load.
