You need a sample document, so people can test out the "using your mouse to sign" part without signing up.

I don't want to bother with the whole sign up, check email, wait, check email again, click verify link, go back to site, find document to test with, upload, blah blah meh.

I just want to see how the signy bit works first.

If you give me a sample I can scrawl "John Hancock" on and download and check out, I'll be much more inclined to go through the registration rigmarole.



Understandable. Thanks for the feedback spydez, much appreciated. If you do get the itch to try a trial document though... let me know ;)


I agree and this is the most offered piece of advice for every, "Ask HN: What do you think of..." post.

Overall I think it's a good, useful concept, especially when you allow for groups to sign the same document. Would be a great feature in Google Docs.


A lot of the "Group"/"Public Document" features are complete, and we'll be deploying them shortly.

On the Document creation page, we do allow you to choose from a list of your Google Docs.

Thanks paul7986 !


You took the words out of my mouth.
