The Ideas site has contributed a lot of great ideas, inspiration and the site has helped us in setting priorities for the upcoming release of Acrobat.com. And, it's great to be voted a finalist for the Forrester Research award. The Acrobat.com Ideas site is powered by Brightidea's Webstorm technology.
Do you provide professional services to clients or others outside your company?
If your work involves managing projects and exchanging files with clients or others outside your company, then you're invited to participate in a paid research interview. Documents you exchange may include contracts, legal documents, proposals, offer letters, marketing collateral, project plans, product documentation, and various kinds of agreements (e.g., financial, non-disclosure, etc.). You may work with consumers or businesses of any size.
During each interview, participants will discuss the process for interacting with external parties and the kinds of documents that they exchange. Participants will also evaluate some new product ideas and provide their opinions about them. Interviews will be done individually, not in groups.
We expect this to be an interesting, low-stress opportunity to talk about how you do your work and help evaluate some product ideas.

Format: Phone or in-person conversation

Announcing today - Tables on Acrobat.com Labs. Tables is the most recent addition to Acrobat.com, and joins Presentations and Buzzword. And it's pretty amazing, if we do say so ourselves. Check it out: http://labs.acrobat.com. And don't miss the Crash Course. You'll see what we mean when you open your first table.
Today we announced Acrobat.com Presentations, a new beta service on http://labs.acrobat.com. Imagine the beauty, power and collaboration of Buzzword, only for presentations. I think Anthony Ha at Venture Beat said it pretty well in the first blog posting we saw in the wild, “...there’s a solid core for Adobe to build around…genuinely beautiful…the key feature of Acrobat.com is the collaboration it allows…”
You asked. We listened. Today, we're announcing Acrobat.com Presentations.
This is a Labs Preview of our latest application - Presentations. It's an exciting, new product and we want you to give it a spin!
Our new presentation tool joins Buzzword in the growing ranks of our online collaborative offerings. You can try the public beta version on our labs site (http://labs.acrobat.com). If you already have an Acrobat.com account, you can just sign in. Or, there's free sign up for new users.
Acrobat.com experienced two outages last night and this morning. The service was restored at 10:00 AM Pacific time.
We continue to monitor the system closely. The incidents were storage related, but no user data was lost. We recognize the critical importance of continuous service. Availability is the life line of our services, and we know any interruption is serious. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience.
We will continue to use this blog to provide informational updates about Acrobat.com, and you can always check the status of the system at http://health.acrobat.com/.
