Blist, the Web list creator that makes spreadsheets look like, well, spreadsheets, has just added a bunch of new features that make document creation even easier. Sharing these Web lists has been simplified as well. For starters, Blist has added a share setting that circumvents the need for a viewer to register or log in to Blist in order to see a document that's been shared with them. This is the same for uploading or creating a new Blist document -- until they want to save their work.
It's an enticing tactic used by many Web-based services, especially ones that deal with a new product or have a service that is best marketed through experience. Blist certainly falls under this category. When I first came across Blist prior to meeting the developers at DEMO earlier this year, I was at a loss for ways to take advantage of all Blist's wonderful features, so I'm particularly glad that sharing documents has become an easier process overall.
Along with this is the unique URL feature, which also makes sharing documents an easier process. Excel import options make it easier to add to an existing spreadsheet built offline, removing the CSV format conversion in order to import content.
